"In some document viewing programs, space is used to scroll down one 
 "screenful" and shift+space is used to move up one screenful. It is a 
 further convention, in documents with pagination (e.g. PDF and PostScript), 
 that if the viewer is already at the top of the page and you press 
 shift+space then it goes to the bottom of the preceding page. Conversely, 
 if the viewer is at the bottom of the page, pressing shift will take you to 
 the top of the next page. 
 
 Programs that i know of which used this convention are: Mozilla, Konqueror, 
 KDVI, xdvi, and GhostView. (The upcoming version of kdvi will implement the 
shift+space convention in response to bug 58826.) 
 
 It would be nice to see these conventions enshrined in the HIG. This is 
particularly important because it is not clear if the upcoming version of 
KGhostView will continue to adhere to this convention (see bug 17400), 
breaking uniformity with KDVI and Konqueror. "

i'd like to see this go into the UI guidelines as well... and added to 
KStdAccel as well as global accels...

comments?
