--- Comment #7 from hyiltiz at gmail.com ---
I think what @Utkarsh suggested (5j moves 5 lines and 7l flips 7 pages) is
fairly intuitive and more feature complete, while users might expect instead
what @Jonas and I were suggesting (5j flips 5 pages).

But I think we all agree on the following:
1. [Feature-request] `51G` goes to the top of Page 51 or the end of the
document;
2. `gg` is the same is `1G`
3. `G` goes to the top of the last page.
4. [optional] `.` to repeat the last navigation action would be really powerful
5. [WontFix] There is no consensus whether `jk` should flip pages, or move
lines, and whether `hl` should drag a page (in zoomed in state) or flip pages
(presumably in Fit Page state). Since 'hjkl` shortcuts are already implemented,
it is best not to break backward compatibility in the user interface.
6. [optional] To go with KDE's flavor of empowering the user and high
customizability for everything (esp. hot keys), we may as well add support for
remapping `hjkl` for any navigation action, so those with other preferences
than the current interface would configure for their own intuition.

As a result, we 1) break no user interface in use already; 2) add new features;
3) accommodate for a larger user's preferences.
