If I officially use them for a function that is (IMHO, agreed)
unnecessary, then they would be wasted for future use for functions that might be more important ;-).
Well these keys are unused for 14 years now and yes, they could be saved for any usage another 14 years, ..., doing nothing ... ^^
I agree with all supporters, I like that function, and them on discrete keys. I would also not have problems to patch it further. But it's also ok to use other discrete keys, e.g. the proposed usage of right/left in replay mode, just to find a global agreement for core VDR.
Maybe there's a way to make it definable for the rare cases an user doesn't have a remote with discrete fastfwd/fastrwd keys ...
In the many years of using VDR I rarly used fastfwd/fastrew, since jumping a few seconds is much more comfortable and therfore important to me.
