Roto Nudging - feature request

[hyperfx]

Would it be possible to use the arrow keys to nudge roto points in sub-pixel increments for fine placement?

I realize this may be in conflict with timeline hotkeys. Maybe in that case, as in Blender, holding down SHIFT while positioning something allows finer placement.

Some sort of precise roto nudging would be great.

Question is, by how much should one increment move the point ?

Well, After Effects has an interesting technique, but I'm not sure if it would work here. If you are viewing the composite at 100% (1:1), then nudging moves a mask point 1 full pixel. If you zoom in to 200%, nudging then moves it 1/2 a pixel. 400%, 1/4 of a pixel, etc....

Because zooming in Nuke and Natron works more organically than in AE, I'm not sure how that technique would transfer over easily.
