With respect to this issue:

Using left/right arrow keys to move between photos in Darkroom would be the 
most intuitive. Currently the user needs to move the mouse from side-to-side to 
switch between two photos (if they don't know the below shortcut, I didn't). 
While they are trying to focus on parts of the image, it's easy to make 
mistakes and click the wrong thing.

The arrow keys would be well suited to this task.

I discovered (in another ticket) that spacebar and backspace perform these 
functions by default, but this is not intuitive. Most programs I'm familiar 
with use spacebar to control the viewport, and backspace is typically a 
destructive button. 

The arrow keys don't seem to be used for anything else either. (After writing 
this I discovered in the above ticket that they *can* be used for sliders. Do 
people use the arrow keys for sliders? If so, maybe the up/down arrows might be 
equally, if not more, intuitive?
