"u" stands for Go forward in history (history-move-forward) 
e.G you visit index.html -> 1.html -> 2.html

the list of history:
        index.html
        1.html
->      2.html

than you use "left" for "Go back" and it goes back to 1.html

the list of history:
        index.html
->      1.html
        2.html
        
Now you can use "u" to go back to 2.html

the list of history:
        index.html
        1.html 
->      2.html 

Go back with "left":
        index.html
 ->     1.html      
        2.html  

Go to 3.html:
        index.html
        1.html  
        3.html  

You want to go to 2.html - use "h" for open the "Open history
manager (history-manager)"

Other browsers with GUI shows you if you there is somepage where
you can move-forward.

Don't seach for "u", collapes all, do search for e.g. "forward" 
(without ")

AFAIK does the search only lookup the names of the keybindings.
