I dislike the idea of non self contained presentations, so for the moment
you are limited to normal pdf annotation support, which offers enough. 

The acrobat viewers obey the keys. For presentations you only need: 

PgUp     previous page 
PgDn     next page 
Ctrl-    previous jump 
Ctrl-w   close document

No need for javascripts here. 

Concerning pp alike, I think tex can go beyond -)
