I am wondering:

How many of your are using these keys

C-c C-f
C-c C-b
C-c C-n
C-c C-p

Never. I always use the speed commands since they became available.

The problem I have with speed commands is that, according to the manual, they only work "when the cursor is at the beginning of a headline." I need commands that work when the cursor is anywhere on the headline.

How about if C-M-a went back to the beginning of the heading and then you use speed commands?  Would that be an alternative, or is that one command to much?

This makes a great deal of sense to me.

I am frequently frustrated when locating the start or end of a tree: how to reliably place point so that M-<Enter> creates a new tree of the desired level?  I suggest the following postconditions: C-M-a guarantees that speed keys are applicable, and C-M-e guarantees that M-<Enter> is applicable.
