you know that i disagree in principle, so let's dissect the arguments
one by one:

anything which does not permit hitting the same key repeatedly is a PITA
to use for me. i'm *way* faster in skipping over unwanted opened
locations than navigating and selecting in a separate list.

the solution seems to be to organize the messages in a tree, so
"nested" messages are not navigated by default.

fwiw, you run into a similar problem when single-stepping in the
debugger. or when navigating location history via alt-(left|right). the
answer is some elaborate auto-closing mechanism for editors which were
opened more or less as a side effect. this is a bit diffuse, though.

we could have a common shortcut group for "navigate to (next|previous)
[sub-]item of currently open output pane", say [shift-][ctrl-]F6.
fwiw, bookmark navigation potentially falls into that category as well, but
bookmarks are obviously not in the right pane for that currently.
