Well... I'll repeat my plea for hierarchical selection using the number keys. With 10 buttons, you should be able to get to any of 1000 books no more than three button presses by selecting your way in 1/10th of the books at each level. Thus, you'd push the button for "Kill... to Now...," then the button for "Kill One... to Kraft..." then the button for "Kill One for the Gipper" (all titles completely bogus). Each button offers you a 1/10th sub-range of the books.
It oughta be trivial to program this up for selection-by-title and selection-by-author. And it would make dealing with large libraries convenient!
Is anyone listening? Firmware Hackers? Sony???
