That's surprising.  I thought you were a vim user :)  I find that taking 
my hand off of the keyboard and reaching for the mouse is much slower.  
As much as possible I like to use keyboard navigation.

So, I can't press Alt+n in the following and get to senders?

    aCollection sel[cursor here]lect: [:e | true]

What else would I have to do?
