This is strange.  My recollection is that something like this already
happened, if not recently, then in a previous release of org.  If you
archived a task, then point would be at the beginning of the next
headline.  I had this:

  ;;archiving moves point to the next entry.  however, mapping moves point
  ;;/after/ running this.

  ;;it does some kind of save-excursion thing.  try running this on 2

  (when (alpha-org-expired-p)
    (message "want to expire %s" (org-get-heading))
    (when t
      (org-archive-subtree)
      ;;we have to move back.  carsten very kindly added this feature for me.
      ;;beware loops and skips.
      (setq org-map-continue-from (point)))))
