Hello gqview developers,

I am writing the list to propose a feature request. Please let me know
if this is not the correct forum for such things.

"Page Up" and "Page Down" keys are already bound to "Previous Image" and
"Next Image" actions. It would be great to give them a little
intelligence as well. When either key is struck and gqview is either
showing the first or last image of a directory have gqview go to the
previous or next directory respectively.

One could even put in a dialog box that prompts the user and asks if
that is what they want to do, and again, "Page Up" and "Page Down" could
be used for confirmation of an action. I would think that if the action
was "Previous Directory" then "Page Up" would be "confirm" and "Page
Down" would be "cancel" and if the action was "Next Directory" then
"Page Down" would be "confirm" and "Page Up" would be "cancel".

This feature would be especially useful when looking at images in full
screen view, then you wouldnt have to toggle back to the regular view
and go through the work of finding the next directory. One could just
keep hitting "Page Down" to keep looking at pictures.

Anyhow, thanks for gqview, its great!
