Indeed, this commit message shows that I had absolutely no reason  
worth mentioning to do this - so I will just take it back.

Actually I vaguely remember that on some systems [home] and [end] do  
indeed line motions, not buffer motions.  I even vaguely remember that  
someone asked for this change.  But I cannot find the message.  And I  
don't think the bindings make sense, to I have taken them out.
