Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Most pdf viewers/readers also have the ability to use j and k for turning pages or scrolling, which is my preferred method. It would be nice if users could customize all their keybinds for the UI on the website.

Why would this be helpful?

Users have different ways that they find easiest or most convenient when using the site, and having the ability to change the way they interact with the site would be nice.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.17.7

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

When I was reading one of my books, I tried to use j to turn the page and was surprised that it didn't work.
