[Rwp] OSARA key map

Well, the control+rightArrow is mapped to an action that is cleverly named,
Move cursor to next transient in items.  That description is less than
precise.  All transients are located in items.  So, I don't quite get the
significance of that.    
And yet, what it actually does is move to the next item.  If I have only one
item, which does contain transients, I would expect the cursor time to
change, just as it does if you use right arrow by itself to scrub, or if you
actualy have multiple items and have successfully moved to the next.  So,
are you telling me that the cursor is actually moving to the next transient,
but that you can't tell it, because playback did not follow?
The big clock cursor time doesn't change either.  
It looks like nothing happens at all.

With Gianluca and Derek's keymap, tab and shift+tab use action chains to go
from next/previous transient, move the cursor to that transient, then play
from cursor. By default, the playback doesn't follow the position of
transients when you move between them. This is entirely different than the
actions used for navigating between items.
