MS Office 5 had a very useful keyboard shortcut that would jump the cursor back to the most recent position. I have trawled through Customise/Keyboard/Navigate, but despite the generous offering of To previous... there was no To previous position. Does anyone know of a plan to add this feature, or a way to get around the lack, or even some shareware that will let one add keyboard shortcuts within applications?

As far as I know, LO doesn’t that operation automatically. However, I found a script which I use to do the job manually.
The script comprises two macros: one to set a quick mark, and another to return to the set quick mark. It’s a lot easier that having to set a normal book mark yourself.
The script and discussion can be found at:

I see what you mean, and I do appreciate that feature. But what I mean is jumping to last position of the cursor while I am editing a document (and jumping around in it). Editing is much quicker when I can jump back and forth without the mouse.

That's a shortcut I use a lot too.
In Bean it's called "last cursor position", and in Word 5 and Word 2004 it's called "Go back".
Surely LibreOffice must have an equivalent somewhere?

LibreOffice does that automatically on document load. See this answer
