The objection was raised that we might want to use these keys for other commands in the future in these buffers, and I agree with that. Besides, there's a bunch of other modes that have buttons that already bind n/p for other things, and TAB/S-TAB work in all these buffers. So I think we'd be encouraging users to remember the wrong set of key strokes here: They should rely on TAB/S-TAB everywhere. So I'm closing this bug report. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
