Description Geoffroy 2011-07-17 16:25:30 UTC 
I understand that up/down are used to navgate from right to left in the activities view's icons because left/right are used to navigate in the textbox. However it would be more convenient to have some way to go down a row without having to move the selector through the whole row. Why not affect PgUp and PgDown, or Shift+Up/Down, to do this?
Comment 1 Geoffroy 2011-07-17 16:27:24 UTC 
For exemple, if I want to access my Documents folder, I start typing documents but since several apps have "document" in their description I can't access the folder fast and need to browse through those apps, hitting 5 times the Down key.
