Record my vote for the right arrow.  It is mapped right now, to
ACTIVATE, but so is <return>.  I don't think it would be difficult to
adapt to the new behavior of <return> to activate a link, and right
arrow to go forward.  The Novice and Intermediate footer text would
need to be changed:

from

-- press space for next page --
  Arrow keys: Up and Down to move. Right to follow a link; Left to go back.
 H)elp O)ptions P)rint G)o M)ain screen Q)uit /=search [delete]=history list 

to

-- press space for next page --
  Keys: Up, Down move; <ret> follows a link; Left is back, Right is forward
 H)elp O)ptions P)rint G)o M)ain screen Q)uit /=search [delete]=history list 

and from

-- press space for more, use arrow keys to move, '?' for help, 'q' to quit.

to

-- press space for more, use arrows, <ret> to move, '?' for help, 'q' to quit.
