I always thing that anybody should be able to use a program, so if you can
bind logic keys to functions, even if there binded already to other keys
you should do it.

To me, the arrow keys for navigation feel very natural for next/prev and I
guess I'm not the only one. page up and down is questionable for begin and
end, but it at least should skip a lot of images...

In a lot of other programs (i.e. Thunar, Firefox, etc) zooming is bound to
ctrl+scrollwheel (down=zoom in), so I'd expect the same in an image
viewer...
