The N900 touchscreen is great. But it's annoying to swipe about 20 times in long websites to reach the top of a page. We need a good solution for this issue! :)
Please talk about this Brainstorm here.

Look at the animation when you swipe from the right in the screen. The Websitehistory scrolls from the left in the screen. It's more logical to change here the user interface. We should swipe from the left to the screen to get the history.
Then we can get the coursor toggle Button when we swipe from the right to the screen. There is enought space for a big and fast scrollbar. Please Vote!

Provide the keyboard scrolling commands present on a PC but missing from the N900 keyboard. For example, shift-up and shift-down could map to pageup and pagedown, and alt-up and alt-down could map to home and end.
This may be applicable to the platform in general and not just the browser.
Comment by Helmuth M.:Couldn't work on the most of the european keyboard layouts. There are no seperate up and down keys.

Extra scrolling could be implemented as positional gestures on the screen. For example, swiping out of the screen on the top scrolls to the begining of the document. On the bottom, goes to the end. On the left goes to the left and right goes to the right.
