The command kills in two parts for a good reason, which is explained
in the comments to the code.  So making a single group will not work,
I think, at least not in all situations.  And relying on after-change
hooks to fix this use case sounds too obscure and fragile to me.

Moreover, I don't think this is specific to Org: any mode that folds
or hides portions of text might hit the same problem.

So we could decide that this command needs to become smarter when the
visual line includes invisible text.  That is, improve the command
without making any Org-specific changes anywhere.  Patches to that
effect are welcome.

This could be handled by a suitable extension to end-of-visible-line.
For example, introduce a new text property which end-of-visible-line
would then handle the same as it currently handles invisible text.
