If this is a feature request, I would like to be able to have a stack of
previous channels (like the "back" and "forward" buttons on a browser)
and/or perhaps a channel ring I could surf through. While I appreciate
the "back" button on my remote, it seems primitive compared to, say,
history on a Linux keyboard.

I haven't used it in a long time but the 'H' key is supposed
to go to the previous channel. I think it maintains a 30-channel
history and you can press 'H' multiple times to reach the n'th
previous channel.

It works for me but it is not documented in keys.txt.
