Re: Custom function for killing the thing at point

alternatively, fall back to org-mark-element. I am not sure what differences in what you are trying to achieve and this are, but this should cover all org elements:

(defun org-kill-element ()
  (interactive)
  (org-mark-element)
  (call-interactively #'kill-region))

I would fall back to region between :begin and :end of the element.

Also, it might be helpful to print a short message about what element
have just been copied.
