Add keyboard shortcut for "next/previous message in current thread"

Gmail has shortcuts for next/previous message in current thread (p and n)

Current version of Mailspring only allows to:

  • goto next and previous thread
  • search in current thread

It would be great to have next/previous message in current thread as a keyboard shortcut in Mailspring too (as keyboard shortcuts contribute to productivity in general).

This would be extremely useful as I often have to navigate long email threads with large bodies and it is a painful process right now.

Perhaps a separate shortcut/keybinding but related is the ability to scroll a message with the keyboard. By default, the arrow keys go the next/previous conversation and even after unbinding them, they don’t scroll the message.
