I'm not sure if this was the default mapping, but the keys that I use
for SKIPCOMMERCIAL and SKIPCOMMBACK (Z/Q) are also mapped to
LOADCOMMSKIP and CLEARMAP.

Since I already had those keys mapped on my remote, and I don't need
them while EDITING, I figure it's a good fit.

You also could overload your PageUp and PageDown keys to something
else... you're not using channel switching while editing.
