ogg player with pause, rewind, fast forward?

Since we're on the topic of things mplayer can't do, one more thing I
don't like about mplayer is that it unpauses as soon as you hit any
key. Thus, if I want to pause, skip to the end, rewind a bit, and then
unpause, I can't. Zinf does stay paused, however it has no skip to end
of file function as far as I can tell.
