I adopted this excellent suggestion, rEalm!!!  I recommend it.

Also, when working on presets, or setting up layer configuration, I 
have used all blanks (or other special characters) so the navigator 
finds them first when positioning the cursor under the prefix and 
scrolling.

Option to rEalm's suggestion:  create a bank (or subset) using the 
initialized preset at the end of the ROM.  This way you have ROM 
pointers already set up for that rom.

eg
127^1:     :A.O. V1.0
127^3:     :XL-1 1.4

Hope this helps.
