You can drag an FCurve manually to scale a group of keyframes negatively and view the result in the Viewer window. This is useful if you want to mirror or invert certain types of animation.
Drag-select a group of keyframes on a FCurve. This illustration show keys on the x-translation curve.

Select the top white arrow.

Drag the top white arrow, so that it is below the bottom white arrow. This inverts the direction travelled along the x-axis.

You can also Ctrl-middle-drag to scale about a point, similar to the Autodesk Maya F-Curve editor.
