PATCH: Keyboard controls for fine-grained volume adjustment

Created attachment 180245 [details] [review] Patch to add fine-grained volume control keybindings When adjusting volume using the keyboard, I often find that raising or lowering the volume level by 8% is too drastic a change, and I can't seem to hit a "comfortable" volume unless I reach for the mouse. This simple patch binds the Shift-UpArrow and Shift-DownArrow keys to a volume adjustment of +2% and -2% (respectively), in the spirit of the fine-grained seek controls (Shift-LeftArrow and Shift-RightArrow). The patch was originally generated against 2.28.6, but I've successfully applied it against the latest Fedora 14 dist sources (2.32.0). Hopefully it'll apply as-is on the current source tree.

We now bind the Shift-UpArrow and Shift-DownArrow keys to a volume adjustment of +2% and -2% (respectively), in the spirit of the fine-grained seek controls (Shift-LeftArrow and Shift-RightArrow). https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641672
