I’ve just discovered this new feature in the Playback preferences window:
It’s really useful when working away from the console. Thumbs up for that!

Hands up for those people who don’t read the release notes 
I am also personally a big fan of this feature.
You may have already found it, but:
- CNTRL + Spacebar acts as Pause/Play backwards
- SHIFT + Spacebar releases the cuelist.

That’s great! I love to have shortcuts on the keyboard.
Testing this features I see that CNTRL + Spacebar doesn’t acts as Pause/Play backwards but as Skip Back instead, wich is also good to have.
Pause/Play would be very nice.
Are you on Windows or Mac? What sort of keyboard / keyboard preference or launguage do you have ?
I can promise you Pause/Play backwards is implemented.
What happens if you press CNTRL +ALT + Spacebar ? ( I forgot to mention that his should be skip backwards)
I’m on a 15" macbook pro last generation with spanish-ISO keyboard.
I’ve just tried changing my preferences to English US and English UK Keyboards and I have the same results.
CNTRL +ALT + Spacebar does also skip backwards.
Ok. I think I found the problem.
On the mac, I have the system preference CMD+Spacebar for Spotlight.
I’ve just disabled it and so CMD+Spacebar does now Pause/Play
So, on the Mac:
- CMD + Spacebar acts as Pause/Play backwards
- CNTRL + Spacebar acts as Skip Backwards
- SHIFT + Spacebar releases the cuelist.
