Subject: Change in keyboard navigation behaviour?
Using Reader this afternoon, I noticed that the "n" and "p" keys, used
to scan down and up through the posts in list view, now causes the
selected post to move to the top of the view's window whenever
pressed. Prior to this,  the displayed posts did not move, allowing
movement through the displayed posts.

Is this a trial change, or a permanent alteration?

If Google is interested in feedback on this change, mine would be
entirely negative. I'd like to retain control of which posts I see as
I navigate through my posts, without having it auto-scroll me.

If this is something I've accidentally switched to, could someone
please tell me how to restore the original behaviour?

I noticed this too, and ditto on the negative comment. I will visually
scan a page of news items, using 'n' and 'p' as a sort of cursor as
I'm moving. However, it's now almost impossible to do that, because
the whole list moves everytime I press one of those keys.

Please make this an option that can be set!

Yes!!!  This needs to change back!  This is so annoying!

Yes, this needs to be fixed.  It really ruins keyboard navigation!

One more vote to return to how it was before, or at least provide the
user a way to set a default. I'm really used to moving my 'cursor'
without moving the whole list.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your feedback on the recent changes we've made. We've heard
you loud and clear and will be reverting the "N" and "P" keyboard
shortcuts to their prior behavior later today. Thanks again for your
patience and for helping make Reader better!

This change should now be live, sorry again for the inconvenience.

It's a shame that some other complaints are not resolved that
quickly...
