Severity: wishlist I think the navigation commands in `emacs-news-mode' and 'emacs-news-view-mode-map' should be similar to `org-mode' and `outline-mode'. IMO, the parts where they agree is the closest we have anything resembling a "standard" for navigating an outline in Emacs. See the attached patch. It is worth comparing to: (describe-keymap 'outline-mode-prefix-map) (describe-keymap 'outline-navigation-repeat-map) (describe-keymap 'org-mode-map)
