Alpha keys don't work for selecting timezones

When selecting timezones on 2.0b11, the numeric buttons on the remote select the first ten menu items. I think they should be used as alpha keys, like when selecting playlists. Using "Advanced" mode to get "Europe/London", the menus take an age to scroll through. (Yes, I know I could select GB from the top, but I was expecting the menus to remember that I had selected Europe and default to that next time - when I will still be on the same continent. I expect this would be the case for most people who travel across timezones)
