Yes. > The navigation short-cuts should be as close as possible to the mac standard. I had focused on testing keybindings with <Opt> in them. Testing a little more on navigation I find that <Cmd>[arrow keys] don't work. (They are instead mapped to <Ctrl>[arrow-keys].)

As I said, these are custom keybindings. So I previously used <opt><cmd>[number] to set bookmarks; now this is <ctrl><cmd>[number].
