Well after throwing stones the other day, I decided to fire up gthumb on 
a directory full of images.
And it wasn't half bad.  It didn't try to render raw files taking 
forever like it once did.  And when I typed (as I
later discovered I didn't need to) gthumb *.jpg I didn't get 100 
instances of gthumb like I once did.
Maybe I can return to using this as a way to browse folders full of 
mixed jpg and raw files.  It now seems
to ignore raw files -- hooray!  Just goes to show what staying away from 
a program for years can
accomplish - I think I could actually use this in its current state.

I have to say I would also prefer using those arrow keys to move from 
one image to the next.
I see the logic of having the 4 arrow keys roam the image, but I find 
being able to use left and right
arrows to jump images more useful.  My instincts are to use the mouse to 
roam the image.
I suppose page up/down works though and it would be a matter of forming 
habits.

What about a use modifiable key binding file?  Something like the .vimrc
