That's true.

The next GNU gv release (3.6.6) will provide an updated mapping for the 
return key as suggested by http://bugs.debian.org/230297 . I have choosen 
the return key because the function of the space key is worth keeping it. 
The "old" function of the return key equals the function of the "page 
down" key and IIRR the "F" key, so we neally do not need a 3rd key for 
that function.

In the mentioned debian bug report you also find hints how to apply 
changed key mappings (esp. see message 35), but notice that you have to 
copy and paste the unchanged keys, too.

BTW: Bernhard, with the next GNU gv release you can close your bug report 
#230297.
