Ctrl+F ---> to next page
Ctrl+B ---> to previous page
G ---> to first row
Shift+G ---> to last row

I only test it on version 6.4.0 of calibre with linux(ubuntu22.04). Please take a try if you would. Thank you.
Works fine on Vanilla Windows Portable 6.10 (i.e. no kb shortcut customisation)

The PI doesn't need to be on a menu, be better if it wasn't offered at install time.

Perhaps that would make more sense for the H/L keys??
The Miscellaneous->Clear the Virtual Library shortcut will take you to the All Book VL tab. It defaults to Ctrl+Esc, but Windows uses that to display the Start Menu

So, on Windows you need to set it to something else, e.g. Ctrl+↑ to match Ctrl+← and Ctrl+→, the defaults for previous and next VL.

H & L take me to previous and next cell. Did you expect first and last?
