        Yes, but it's so much easier to use the Shift keys than typing C-c C-t.

	Hmm...I don't seem to have that command. Is this only in the "trunk" 
version?

	In any case, while a bit better, speed commands only work at the 
beginning of the headline. I often (always, actually) cycle through the 
todos while in the middle of the headline.

	It'd be great if what I asked for could be implemented - say, as a 
configuration option. It can remain as is by default, but those like 
myself can enable the cycling that I like.

	Or, I suppose, I could override the keybindings s.t. Shift L/R map to 
whatever C-c C-t map to...

        That may be it. Is this intentional, or a bug?

Thanks.
