I would like the cursor keys to move the direction the cursor keys are pointing in a diagram, no matter which way the diagram is orientated.
Currently if the diagram is top-down/bottom-up a cursor left will move left. However in left-right mode the cursor moves UP, and in right-left mode the cursor moves DOWN. This is extremely confusing and very counter-intuitive. I can see the argument is that the cursor keys follow the family tree layout (cursor down always goes down a generation), but I can't think of any program which does not keep the cursor key movements to follow the screen rather than the representation. It also breaks all good UI design rules to switch the action of the cursor keys depending on how the data is represented on the screen.
