Hi all,

since some time C-n/C-p move by visual/screen lines, not by logical.
Basically, I like that behavior, but I found it very confusing that
C-a/C-e don't work on visual lines.  A quick look into the docs showed
that I have to enable visual-line-mode, and with that turned on I'm
quite satisfied (although I don't like word-wrapping without fringe
indicators, so I added them back).

But is this inconsistent behavior of C-n/C-p and C-a/C-e really the
intended default?  I think it would be better if C-a/C-e respected the
value of `line-move-visual', too.  Then the default would be like
visual-line-mode without word-wrapping.

Bye,
Tassilo
