Maybe we should bind `F' and `B' to seek by just one second.
Then `f' and `b' can seek by a few seconds and `M-f' and `M-b'
by a larger number.  Maybe `C-M-f' and `C-M-b' should seek
even longer.

So how about 1 s, 3 s, 10 s and 60 s?

Right, so rapid consecutive relative seeking commands end up
seeking to the same place over and over.  That's no good.

Yes, I have installed a fix.

See if you like it.  It should actually improve the
interactive seeking for all backends a little bit.
