It's very nice all buttons on the MCE remote are supported now, there are two things I think that can be improved regarding key handling:
I like having 3 different jump distances, I use them all the time with my MCE remote, I like to use the 4 arrow buttons on the remote or keyboard for jumping but MPC-HC don't allow to use them, not if you need the arrow buttons for menu navigation as well, DVD menus for instance.
The problem is you can only assign one command per input event instead of multiple commands per input event. VLC has the same problem but DVD menu navigation is not a command, the arrow keys are hard coded for menu navigation so no problem with VLC, the same is true for PotPlayer/KMPlayer and most other players. MPC-HC is maybe the only player with this limitation.
Another thing I miss is a search filter in the key config menu, such filters are popular in applications since Vista has them everywhere, they save a lot time manual searching, VLC was the first player having this feature.
