I played with this extension (which adds keyboard controls) and got some
rudimentary support for the remote working. I believe you can see which
movie is selected. It works okay for movies but for shows a selection
just starts playing an episode. There's no way to select a
season/episode with the remote that I figured out. It is still easier
just to switch to the bluray player for Netflix, especially when it is
mainly the kids using it and I don't want to support it.
