I did not yet test it good enough but your idea worked out of the box,
beginning/end-of-defun and mark-defun seem to recognise bibtex entries
already properly without further ado! :-)

And one better - in my opinion - C-M-S-e C-M-S-e ... (But the two
methods are only working like C-M-h when point is already at the
beginning of a defun.)
Anyway, I understand now that it might be better to have two ways of
advancing a region: From point with navigation commands *and* from mark
with marking commands like C-M-e or M-}...
