I considered this problem when I made the patch, and originally started
writing it to not use advise. The alternative I see is to create
org-mode versions of these functions, and binding them with the
org-mode-map to override the existing functions, like we do with other
functions. I prefer advice in these cases because the advice is simple
and it is easier for users customizing keybinds and extending
emacs. However, compared to making it a module and thus not enabled by
default, I would prefer to make org-mode versions of the
functions. Having them on by default will be more helpful to more users
overall. I would be happy to write the patch for this, if we agree.
