This awesome. If this equivalent existed for M-a/e and M-f/b, I would be
very happy with the result. Seem reasonable -- when on a folded headline, I
just can't think of a reason someone would want to interact with the
headline after the ellipsis. It even, as someone else mentioned, can ge one
into trouble -- press the wrong key or delete after it and you're removing
text you can't even see... but are able to interact with!

Thanks for this, memmon.
