Great! I just merged Marc's changes into the trunk. They contained some
changes to the keyboard navigation, but I think I can do the required
integration when we merge the keyboard branch.

Could you elaborate on this? I am not quite sure I got the idea.

Hmm, I think I can see your point. Actually, I don't feel strongly about
this point. I assigned it the way it is now because someone requested it
for their remote. I don't know how common it is that the remote buttons
map to page up/down. Anyways, I hope these problems go away once we
implement a way to customise the key bindings.

That should do the trick.

Oh, while you are at it: could you please have a look at this bug that
has been filed about the switched up and down keys?
