I automatically flag commercials and have myth set to automatically
skip commercials, since usually the flagging it pretty good.  But
sometimes I miss a bit of the show, and I wonder what others do when
this happens.  If I skip back to just before the bad jump, myth just
jumps again at the same spot, so that doesn't help.  And bringing up
the menu to turn off auto-skipping is a bit of a pain.  Do people
bind a remote key to skip back to the last commercial mark?  Does
this do the right thing?

While I'm writing, I have a wishlist request:  it'd be nice to be able
to have the automatic skipping start 1 or 2 seconds after the
beginning of the commercial (the number should be configurable and
could default to zero, or course).  The reason is that sometimes the
skips are so perfect that I can't tell whether I missed any of the
show.

Likewise, I'd like to be able to start playing just before the end of
the commercial.  There is already a setting for this, but it doesn't
seem to work for me...

By the way, thanks for much for this great feature of myth.  It
usually works perfectly!
