Add option for J K hotkeys to work with only selected layer(s)
So J and K are potentially really useful keys but in practice there is often way too many keyframes on a timeline. How about adding the ability to add a modifier key, such as ALT, which would let J and K navigate to the next keyframe or marker ON SELECTED LAYERS ONLY. That would be most appreciated Mr. Adobe, thank-you.

I came here to post this same request! Would be extremely helpful when navigating the comp timeline to tweak keyframes.

This isn't about real-time playback. In AE, J & K moves the playhead to the previous/next keyframe, but it works globally, including in and out points of the composition, which makes it cumbersome to quickly navigate the keyframes of the currently selected layer. Having this tweak would be a very nice workflow upgrade.

In a fast storage, faster process, high end system future, actual jkl real time playback is possible and preferable. If you sorry the cache problems out. What about ctrl alt arrow instead?
