For a while, I have been suffering what appears to be a corollary of this: C-e on any long line (possibly longer than a fill-column distance) skips by increment of approximately a fill-column length, and C-e must be repeated several times on a long line to get to the end. This is somewhat annoying when using org-remember via org-protocol or org-annotation-helper, that only yank text paragraphs as a long line. I see no rhyme or reason to the pattern of the skips. Is this a bug in my setup? My customized parameter for Org Special Ctrl A/E was "set C-a and C-e separately" in the customize buffer. When this variable is reset to "after stars/bullet and before tags first", the same thing seems to happen.
