That's exactly the reasoning. When you read, down is forward, up is back.
It's not bound to 'Up' and 'Down', though - it's reusing the channel
up/channel down keys (which happen to be bound to the up + down arrows by
default).
They're just alternate keys, anyway - I'd think most remotes would have
dedicated seek buttons.
