Hello,
Up to quite recently, I could select ("region") code blocks or multiple
consecutive paragraphs by pressing <C-down> which ran `forward-paragraph'.
Now that <C-down> is mapped to `org-forward-element':
- I can't select any code block anymore via <C-down> (well line by line with
<down>).
- I can't select consecutive paragraphs from following subtrees.
I think I can live with the latter, but I find the former very inconvenient.
Is there a plan to fix it in `org-forward-element' (IOW, do we consider that
as a bug or a feature, or not at all?), or must I remap <C-down> back to its
old command?
Best regards,
Seb

This second item is inherent to the structure of the document. You can
use `org-down-element' to move into the next subtree.

I don't think the bug comes from `org-forward-element'.
If you use C-space in the middle of the block and then M-x
org-forward-element, the block will be marked. If you do the same with
C-<down> instead of M-x org-forward-element, it will not be marked.
There is a similar problem with `org-end-of-line' (it will lose region
if called through C-e, but not with M-x org-end-of-line), also on source
blocks.
I don't know the root of this evil.
Anyhow, you can remap <C-down> to whatever suits you.
Regards,
