Add Support for custom keyboard Shortcuts to enable custom controllers or quick buttons #26

This idea also seems very good, the reason is you can get programmable tiny keyboards to press certain buttons in combination, and this means that you could have an end user button control! Could be huge.

I know this idea will need work so that it's not fragile and easy to break. Perhaps hard coded with 10 keys to pick from and then you could pick what they do. Perhaps.

I was about to write an Issue about this, but it's exactly what I had in mind. And I believe this might be the use case for many people: raspberry pi connected to a small display and small keypad (those with 6-10 buttons), to go to specific pages, and/or simply move backward/forward.
