Since Apple dropped Expose and Spaces (well designed functions) and replaced them with the impossible to use Mission Control, I don't have much respect for Apple design capabilities anymore. (Steve Jobs is gone and they don't know what they are doing anymore.) The function exists in Adobe, it would be highly useful in Skim. Compare: currently if I have a 200 page document, to get to the end I have to enter a number in the little box. That's very awkward. The alternatives are worse - page down for a minute or two or switch to continuous mode and then back again. A sliding bar with discrete intervals at page boundaries solves this simply and elegantly.
