Hi Orgers,
is the following function worthy to occupy space in Orgmode?
#v+
(defun org-mark-element-parent ()
"Put point at beginning of the parent element, mark at end."
(interactive)
(let ((parent (org-element-property :parent (org-element-at-point))))
(when parent
(push-mark (org-element-property :end parent) t t)
(goto-char (org-element-property :begin parent)))))
#v-
Can be used to e.g.
- mark a table or
- a plain list
Best regards
Marco

There is already a binding to move to the beginning of the parent
element (C-c C-^, IIRC).
IMO, this is not only marginally useful. Also, it doesn't handle
headlines.

Nice!
How could I overlook `org-up-element'? `org-up-element' together with
org-mark-element (M-h) is my key combination of the day!

Let's commit that little RFC to the stream of oblivion.
Thanks!
