Keyboard seeking

I'd like to see Winamp-style seeking added to Xion. In Winamp you can assign it to a global hotkey. Pressing the hotkey moves the position on the track 5 seconds in the desired direction.
I think keeping the hotkey pressed down also accelerates the seeking somehow... Someone could verify this since I'm not exactly sure how it works.
It's very handy when you want to advance with your song in case you're playing a game on full screen or just don't want to use the mouse for seeking.

Hi sp3ctum and welcome to the Xion Community!

I will be adding support for this feature after the next public release as i've currently locked down all features so that I can get a stable build out!:)
