Ditto. And things like editing key bindings and jump points (or maybe
they're the same thing!)

It doesn't replace MythFrontend for me because one thing that MythFrontend
does that NO other UI does (as far as I know) is recording profiles. I have
one for movies that sets the recording group, looks up metadata and
finishes 12 minutes after the published end time (so I don't miss the end
of the film). A recording profile lets you do all this with a couple of
extra presses of the remote. Long live MythFrontend!
