Sounds useful. I sometimes grep to find matches, then move around. Currently I would search for the same pattern, having a command would be helpful. To be clear: the commands would jumpt to the next (or previous) quickfix entry relative to the cursor position. For the command names: how about :cabove and :cbelow ? I find "cfnext" cryptic, it's too much like ":cnext" and can be confused with "cnfile" -- A computer programmer is a device for turning requirements into undocumented features.
