Description anthonymerhi 2003-08-04 04:55:09 UTC 
There does not appear to be short-cut keys for moving up/down through text by
one paragraph ata time. This feature is available in other popular word-processors.

Business requirement: Users can move through text very quickly by page
(page-up/down) or very slowly by line (up/down). But users have no way of moving
through text at a rate somewhere in between, i.e., by paragraph (e.g.,
ctrl-up/down).

Proposal: In the default key-mapping, add ctrl-up/down and map to
paragraph-up/down actions. Also, after the paragraph-up/down action executes,
the cursor should be automatically placed just before the first character of the
now-current paragraph.

Also, if the cursor is currently not just before the very first
character in the paragraph, and the user presses 'up-para' (e.g.,
ctrl-up-arrow), then that action should move the cursor to just before
the first character in the para. The next 'up-para' that the user
types should then move the cursor to the previous para. This
special-case 'cursor-in-mid-para' behaviour should apply only to the
'up' direction, not 'down'. If the cursor is mid-paragraphg when the
user presses ctrl-down, the cursor should jump straight to the next
para at be sitting just before the first character of that para.
