I didn't see this addessed in the archives, so here goes:

I'm using 0.11 of everything right now.

I have xmame.x11 working wonderfully with xv fullscreen, no technical
problems there. However, my rom list is very long and frustratingly
tedious to browse. I changed the display tree to remove year and genre
because I never remember which roms are where that way, so I just have
all my MAME roms directly under MAME in the tree.

I browsed the code for displaying those and see it has only moveUp() and
moveDown() functions for neighbor sibling in the list. I was thinking I
could add a quick and dirty pageUp() and pageDown() and bind them to the
PgUp and PgDn keys, but it wasn't obvious to me at first glance.

Ideally I'd like to add an "Alpha" option to the display tree options
along with Genre, Year, etc. I'd also like to add the ability to browse
the list a page at a time instead of only a line at a time.

Before I dig in, has anybody else done something similar or addressed
these issues, or have a suggestion for something I haven't thought of?
