No way to seek in less than 1-minute increments with keyboard

[WillDyson]

Feature enhancement request:

It would be really nice to have a way to seek with the left/right keyboard keys in smaller increments than a full minute.

The xine/mplayer approach of using the cmd/alt/whatever modifiers to seek in smaller increments would be fine. So would the rockbox approach of having the seek speed start off slow, but increasing as the key is held down longer.

Actually I like the 'sticky' behavior more.

I.E.
First push - fast forward / rewind 3x
Second push - 6x
Third push - 20x
etc.

Now there are two possibilities:
- When ffwding, if the rewind button's pressed, decrease ffwding speed
- like above, but start rewinding 3x

There's also the reaction time - when rewinding / ffwding and the play
button's pressed Elisa should actually play from a place that was seen a
second or so earlier. So, when rewinding at 30x speed, actually start
playing from 30s later than the play button was pressed, when ffwding at
120x on the other hand, start playing from 2 minutes earlier.
