Goto Page Dialog in Okular, Adobe Reader, Abiword and WPS Writer

One of the most common means of navigation is a simple goto feature. Most text
editors have a go to line feature (Kate, Gedit, Notepad++, Geany) and most word
processors and document viewers have a go to page feature (MS Word,
Kingsoft/WPS Writer, WordPerfect, Abiword, Adobe Reader, Okular). So i'd like
to suggest that a simple dialog appear, asking for the user to enter in a
number for LibO to jump to.

Going to a particular page is possible in the navigator dialog, but i believe
that basic users will be overwhelmed with the amount of features shown in the
dialog, and the dialog doesnt have any text indication that that the goto page
functionality is in the dialog.

I'd like to suggest that a menu entry be added for the feature in the Edit menu
and that Ctrl+G be its shortcut key. Below is the menu and shortcut keys used
by other mentioned apps.

Notepad++    - Search > Go to...      (Ctrl + G)
Geany        - Search > Go to Line... (Ctrl + L)
Gedit        - Search > Go to Line... (Ctrl + I)
Kate         - Edit > Go to Line...   (Ctrl + G)

MS Word      - Edit > Go To...        (Ctrl + G)
WPS Writer   - Edit > Go To...        (Ctrl + G)
Abiword      - Edit > Go To...        (Ctrl + G)
WordPerfect  - Edit > Go To...        (Ctrl + G)

Adobe Reader - View > Go To > Page... (Ctrl + N)
Okular       - Go > Go to Page...     (Ctrl + G)
