Ok, I understand how having to hold shift may not be so practical.

It would be nice if there was a pattern that made it easy to 
remember/deduce the keys for stepi/nexti from the keys for step/next, 
which are more obvious.  For example, if we used 'a' for stepi and 'b' 
for nexti, the "instruction" versions of the keys would both be at the 
left of their "non-instruction" counterpart.  That's with a 
QWERTY-centric view though, maybe it doesn't make sense with other 
layouts.
