while in the recordings list screen, using the MythBuntu theme
You start by being on the list of titles. You press Right and you're
on the content list (default being All Programs)

To me, pressing Right would be really nice if it showed all the
programs with the same title (what this patch does)
however, re-binding LEFT/RIGHT isn't really a possibility as how they
behave depends on the theme. Horizontal theme (like Terra) have an
action for right already.

Finding a proper and intuitive key binding, may be too much to decide.

So I suggest having a menu entry instead, Between Add To Playlist and
Mark As Watched

There we would have, "Find other show like this one"
