Re: missing from the manual

Also, it moves you to an outer level if you are at an end.

For my own use, because I want the command to treat the first item in a list the same way as the others (when moving forward), I tweaked org-forward-element from

(let* ((elem (org-element-at-point))

to:

(let* ((elem (progn
                        (when (equal (car (org-element-at-point)) 'plain-list)
                          (forward-char))
                        (org-element-at-point)))

The "backward" version behaves exactly as I would like it to.

They work on paragraphs, lists, blocks, etc.
