I am not sure what this question means.

With the code as it is now it is not possible (somebody correct me
if I am wrong), so I assume you are talking about customizing
the code.  Well then of course all things become possible if you
work long enough on it :)

Anyway I don't really understand what you expect from that combined-
function key.  An ACTIVATE would normally change the currently viewed
document, so where/when do you want the NEXT_LINK take effect?  

Since I haven't seen any other replies, I thought this would be better
than none...
