That's funny, I was playing around with the frontend (can't remember 
what I was doing) this weekend and this was starting to bug me. I was 
going to ask/fix it but I did not know how others felt. When I down 
arrow or page-down I usually think about going back / down and not up / 
forward. Maybe a pilot or someone that plays flight simulators did that. 
That is how they usually work, pushing up on a joystick causes you to go 
down.
