Jump to letter in LaunchBox

Without a grid view in big box mode, I often find myself in desktop mode. Even when there are only a few pages to scroll through, I find myself instinctively pressing the first letter of the game to jump down (I still do it thinking it will just magically start working).

For instance, I want to Press the S key and auto-select the first title beginning with S. If I press S again, it cycles to the next S title.

For putting LB Big Box as a frontend on an arcade cabinet (or a TV with only a gamepad), a nice feature in BB mode would be able to press right or left with the joystick on the game selection screen to jump letters in the alphabet to get to the game you want to play rather than scrolling all the way down the list. For instance if I wanted to play a game on the Sega Genesis that started with a S, instead of scrolling all the way down to get to the S's I could just press right to jump letters in the alphabet until I got to the S games or press left to go backwards in the alphabet.
