Public bug reported:

currently you have to tap on the video/timeline bar to get to a
later/earlier point in a video. it would be a nicer user experience to
navigate with swipe gestures rather than by tapping. like swipe right
over the video surface to fast forward. the further/faster i move the
finger the faster it should fast forward.

vlc on android does this very nicely. (it also controls volume and
brightness with swipe gestures - ver convenient!)
