Do you want to change this or not?  Make up your mind.

This is something you inherited from the original and not your
fault, but I am not sure if these -title entries are of good
taste (we have corresponding "Alt-n" for "next").  Something
more descriptive like "<Alt-p> for 100 newer changes", perhaps?

Also, "first", "prev" and "next" have always confused me.  Maybe
"latest", "older" and "newer" are better labels for them?

Is 100 a good default?  It feels a bit unbalanced compared to
the height of the default summary page with descriptions, 16
shortlog entries, 16 tags and 12 heads.
