Description
Currently, if you want to walk, you have to hold down the W/↑ key, which can get annoying and - for people with arthritis, for example - painful. Many modern platforms therefore have an auto-walk feature which makes walking a toggle.
For SL, this would also be a nice feature. You can assign a key, tap it, and you walk until you hit the toggle, W/↑ or S/↓.
