Since I was a proponent behind this (and added the code), I suppose it
only fair to document what was done. I've updated the manual page to
reflect the current situation.

However a lot of verbiage was put in because numeric input is not
usable by default. I'd like to see the digit keys bound to numeric
input, switching their default bindings with the seek relative
10*n%. Unless there are objections, I'll do that; it might be however
after th3 0.9.13 release though - see below.

Also numeric input would be a lot more useful by adding "absolute"
versions of subtitle and audio channel selection. That is goto
subtitle number n or goto audio channel number n. Right now there is
only next/previous.

I too will be out the next couple of days - until Aug 5th. Given that
a couple of people will be out, it might be a good idea to hold off
the release 0.9.13 till mid week, no?
