Not meant that way. I just don't see why Totem (which has very
particular needs for everything that's keyboard shortcut related) is
being singled out.

Unfortunately, the HIG mentions something which is very different from
what we need and use. There's the exact same problem for Fullscreen for
example. Supporting both is planned (there's a bug opened about
"cleaning up the keyboard bindings", don't know yet in which direction
it will go).

You might also check for the uses of the mouse wheel in some
applications. It will scroll in gthumb, skip forward in Totem, and zoom
in in eog.

sucks...
