The X/O keys had been behaving inconsistently for me - sorry, I was wrong
to say that they did nothing. It seems that while testing I had sometimes
forgotten to move focus to the viewport, so the keystrokes went to the
menu bar and were ignored. (I blame lack of sleep.) The two problems I
can reproduce now after reverting my evince patch are:
- in "zoom to fit" mode, the X/O keys don't move cleanly by pages, the
gap shifts around and you see parts of two pages.
- the "single page" mode (continuous off) is broken, you can't move off
the current page. But that mode was introduced by my read activity
change so the evince bug wasn't visible in the original build.
The attached updated evince patch fixes both with (as far as I can tell)
no regressions. The page up/down keys move by screenfuls as you expect,
just more consistently. I've also fixed paging backwards in "single page"
mode so that it shows the bottom of new pages first, that appears to be
broken in the normal desktop evince also.
I've also attached the Read activity patch again which adds the fullscreen
button and continuous/single mode switching - this hasn't changed since
the last time.

You could do some heuristics such as looking for a blank gutter on the
page. Or do it based on the user's behavior - if the current viewport
covers less than 2/3 of the page width and is on the bottom left, the
page down key moves the viewport to the top right of the page. But that
may annoy people used to the old behavior, and wouldn't work well for
supporting languages with different writing directions. So I'm not sure
if it's worth pursuing.

I think the addition is not that complicated (could be a single toggle
button, two-half-pages-with-gap as the icon). The single page mode can
make reading documents much less confusing, especially in the case of
multi-column documents where you would otherwise need to be careful when
moving back to the next column to make sure you're on the right page.
This way you can clearly see where the page ends, and either move back up
manually or hit "home" to go back to the top of the page.
Actually, I think non-continuous mode would even make sense as the
default since it's simpler and more book-like than the continuous one,
which acts more like a scroll. And it should use less memory since it
never needs to render more than a page at a time.
