Re: line-line-move-visual: was line motion problem

[T. V. Raman]

I  think changing the behavior of the arrow keys and c-n / c-p to
default to the behavior from visual-line-mode is simply too
drastic a change for Emacs. It should be customizable, and once a
minor mode,  come with a turn-on-visual-mode that users can place
on various hooks.
