Hi,

Currently the spacebar appears to do the same thing in the browser as Page Down.
 It would be great if space would page through the document (as Page Down) until
reaching the bottom, then follow a LINK REL="NEXT" (if present) to go to the
next page in sequence.  That way you could navigate all text at a well
structured site by repeatedly hitting space.

This would be very convenient, for example, for reading documentation which is
spread across many HTML pages, but in which some pages require scrolling.
