Keyboard shortcuts

[Ram Rachum]

Tried it now, Ctrl-alt-pgdn works, but ctrl-alt-pgup doesn't. I'm happy I
found Ctrl-alt-pgdn and it solves my problem, but I'm really wondering why
the GnuCash developers didn't go with standard shortcuts, which are
ctrl-pgup and ctrl-pgdn, or ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab.

Does anyone have a clue about the second item?
