Whiteboard

I wholeheartedly agree! I'm not very keen on the current arrow keys (nor the refresh button, tbh).

What about a modified version of modeswitcher? -- luksi.reiku

Navigation arrows would be a "highly specialized" widget, and I think that's not a good thing. What I recommend is to create a GroupButton widget, because it can be used for other purposes. For example, you can use it when you need to group buttons with similar functionality.

Check this implementation, it lacks of features, but can work as the base. If you, elementary people make some specifications, I can work in it.
