Description

Today, up arrow and down arrow can be used to move up or down one status in the timeline.

I'd like to add j and k as navigation keys, and also add the concept a "selected status" so other keys can be used to boost, reply, etc. to the "selected status"

Research direction

Start by locating the timeline's existing up- and down-arrow navigation handling and the actions that currently operate on a status. Implement j/k navigation and define how a selected status is retained for actions such as boost and reply; done means both navigation and selected-status actions work consistently.
