One feature I find myself wishing for is keys to move
to the top, middle, or last line in the the window.
With a maximized xterm at 1280x1024, font 7x13, the
window is about 70 lines of text. (Currently I bounce
on M-9 or M-0 to move up or down quickly.)

With a nod to Perl's regex match three amigos ($`, $&,
and $'), some good keys to add for window navigation
might be:

M-`  goes to top (1st line in window)
M-&  goes to middle line in the window (i.e. M-7)
M-'  goes to bottom (last line in window)
