Not sure this is the right subforum for this question, but it seems logical so...

Is there a way to quickly navigate to a section of the book list?

I have over a thousand books in the list, and sometimes I want to just immediately get to a certain author, or even just to the authors whose last names begin with "N" (for example, and assuming I'm currently sorted by author LN,FN), without doing a search. Like in iTunes (and please understand that I am not comparing iTunes to Calibre - just using this as an example!!), if I have my song list sorted by Artist and I hit the "N" key, it will immediately take me to the first song with an artist name beginning with "N"; if I have my song list sorted by Song Name, it will take me to the first song with a song name beginning with N.

This doesn't work in Calibre - some of the letter keys already have shortcuts associated with them - but is there any way to quickly and easily get to a section of the book list, or navigate through the book list, other than scrolling by hand with mouse or cursor? This is something I do frequently and each time I do it I wonder if there's a more efficient way that I don't know about!
