Agreed, this is more logical, although the modified cursor key
bindings are always going to be contended. Personally I have a
"global" standard set of key bindings for outline navigation and
editing which applies across several modes: folding-mode, org-mode,
outline-minor-mode (and allout), orgstruct-mode. Having to remember
different bindings for how to hide/reveal/zoom to a subtree in each
mode is a nightmare. I would love to see some standardization here
with more mode authors talking to each other.
On a related topic, if I have S-{left,right} on my org-disputed-keys
list, this breaks using them for changing a timestamp by one-day
increments, even though I don't consider that a clashing binding. I
guess I am arguing that this is a minor bug with `org-key' being too
indiscriminate in when it filters bindings.
