Moving through computer analysis with arrow keys

I suggest allowing the 'home' and 'end' keys to skip to the start or end of the selected Stockfish line (I'm talking about the variations that Stockfish generates for mistakes/blunders etc). This mimics the way these keys are used in word processing, and would make navigating the computer analysis much more fluid with only a keyboard

Another small change that would bring much more convenience: at the end of the selected Stockfish line, allow the right arrow key to move to the next move in the game, rather than having to click back into it. This would also make much more sense since pressing the left arrow key at the start of the Stockfish line moves back into the main line.

These changes would, for me at least, eliminate the need to use the mouse at all

Also flipping board needs a shortcut.

I agree

I mean with the recent addition of the navigation box for Stockfish lines, I feel like these changes would complete what Lichess has been slowly doing - making keyboard navigation fluent

@thibault

With the exception of the board flip shortcut, none of those provide the functionality I wrote about

The shift+arrow key shortcuts are redundant, though I don't mind extra
