Hi,

It would be nice to have a more predictable method for seeking.

As it is now, clicking on the empty spaces of the stream position control c=
auses the position to jump an arbitrary number of seconds, depending on the=
 stream's length. On the other hand, using the arrow keys causes a 5 second=
s jump, but only if the control has focus. This makes playing the bass whil=
e trying to seek back on a stream a pain ;-)

I suggest the arrow keys are globaly bound (that is, for all controls) to t=
he position seek actions. Also it would be quite useful if the position con=
trol is modified in such a way that clicking on the empty spaces makes a co=
nstant jump, maybe 5 seconds, too, but could be a bit longer.
