Here be poll'esque investigation about navigating the pattern editor!

Question 1

Imagine: you are on row 53 in a pattern o' 64 rows. You want to go to row 48, key jump is set to 1, highlighting is standard 16/4. What do you do?

1) page down, page up
2) 5x cursor up
3) alt-5, cursor up (, alt-1)
4) something else

?

1) or 2), depending on the context. For example, if I had already been using the up/down arrows a lot, I might continue doing so.

Back from the grave. Here's another question, for people who use subrows regulary.

Question 2

If you're editing subrows, would you like to auto-close these subrows when moving vertically with bigger steps than (sub)rows? Think of actions such as Page Up/Dn, Home, End, and maybe even cursor steps. Put differently; how big is that chance that, coming from subrows, you still want to edit subrows after these big leaps?
