I agree, this is poor UI design. I use PgUp/PgDn or the scrollwheel to go
through articles myself, and didn't know about the <space> key; but it does
seem like a poor idea. it's too easy to reach the end of an article, not
realize it, hit the <space> bar again, and end up in the next article.

I think there shouldn't even be an option for it; it just shouldn't do that.
As I've heard the KDE people say; if there's an option to change it, it's
probably not right to begin with.
