You might be interested in an elisp file I've written which gives you
the plain buffer cycling (using a skipping predicate) on Shift
left/right (default; of course you can use your own keybindings) and
extents that mechanism to user defined subgroups of buffers and
positions (several might be in the same buffer). You choose the
subgroup to cycle with Shift up/down (default...). I hope I could
explain that in an understandable way ;-)

If you are interested:

I am currently working on a complete rewrite of that thing which I
hope to finish within the next 3-4 weeks but it already works quite
well for some people. It should work OK in GNU Emacs, too, I think but
I haven't tested that thoroughly.
