Hello Bastien,

I agree, but it is not compatible with keeping it only for org-mode
buffers while using something else for some other modes, which is what
you suggest next :

I think backporting narrow-to-subtree to outline is a very good move.
(Other things would be cool in outline, e.g. why does it not have
outline-cycle ? But that's a longer story, I guess.)

Another possibility : wouldn't it make sense to hijack narrow-to-defun
for this ? In fact, it used to be that way, but then it was changed in
76fa979225a2a31f7be6d366c48750d4f7abe458 (and then reverted, and then
the revert was reverted, and I have no idea why).

Looking more closely, the current behaviour is partly buggy, e.g. with a
file like :

* one
** two
** three
* four

When point is on the second line and C-M-e is used, we end up on the
first line ! I see two reasons for this or similar failures :
- One is a bug in org-forward-heading-same-level (I provide a patch
below).
- The other is because org-backward-element doesn't fully satisfy the
"beginning-of-defun usual protocol" since it sometimes signals an error.

Here's a test for catching the bug in org-forward-heading-same-level:
(org-test-with-temp-text "\
* one
* two
"
   (goto-line 2)
   (org-forward-heading-same-level -1)
   (should (bobp)))

And here's the patch for org-forward-heading-same-level.

-      (while (and (prog1 (> count 0)
-		    (forward-char (if (and arg (< arg 0)) -1 1)))
-                  (funcall f org-outline-regexp-bol nil 'move))
+      (while (and (> count 0)

         (let ((l (- (match-end 0) (match-beginning 0) 1)))
           (cond ((< l level) (setq count 0))
                 ((and (= l level)

Want a git-format-patch one ?

Also, here's a test where I don't know what should happen (currently
signals a user-error) :

(org-test-with-temp-text "\
one
* two
"
   (goto-line 2)
   (org-backward-element)
   (should t))
