Your feedback is very correct. Using space as a keyboard shortcut is a bad idea! We should stick to standard keys. Thanks, Coward.

Together, these two issues become a nightmare. For example, if you type N you will skip to the next song. Now, if you are used to type-ahead find and would like to find a specific song in the treeview, you would focus the treeview and start typing. In the process you would possibly skip several songs (N), go back (B), or even edit the selected track's metadata (E). A disaster! My main complaints about Banshee are keyboard-related:
