 Not me :-) It is consistent in that it will only close subtree when
 there is no higher level, and I guess that's okay...

 But thinking about it, we could ponder the general behaviour of the
 arrow keys in different situations:

a) in open sublevel
left        moves up one in folder hierarchy
right       depends

a1) in open sublevel with no sublevel
left        as a)
right       does nothing

b) on level with closed subtree
left        depends
right       opens subtree and moves to first subfolder

c) on level with open subtree
left        as a) except root level
right       does nothing

d) on root level with closed subtree
left        nothing
right       as b)

e) on root level with open subtree
left        closes subtree
right       as c)


So... my thoughts are:

1) would it be better if in situation c) <right> also moves to first of
   sublevel?
2) should in situation a1) <right> move to the next folder in same
   hierarchy?
2a)should <right> behave like <down> in a1) or only move to end of
   subtree?
3) should <left> always close sublevel in situation c)?

My opinion is Yes on 1,2,3 and No on 2a) What does everybody else
think?
