Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

As my new laptop has handy buttons for XF86Forward and XF86Back, I've bound them to Okular's "Next Page" and "Previous Page" actions. However, when viewing two pages side-by-side (Facing Pages) (or three; Overview), I have to hit the buttons 2/3 times, because Next/Previous Page only advances to the next page and doesn't distinguish if it is already visible or not.

If for some reason the current behavior is the desired one (perhaps it's useful in combination with another feature), would it be possible to maybe add another set of actions (e.g. "Scroll Forward", "Next set of pages", ...)?

The 'Next Page' action literally takes you to the next page. The desired behavior you are looking for can be obtained by using the page up and page down buttons (or for that matter the up and down arrows).
