Not IMHO. ;-)
This kind of request comes up periodically. The last time, AFAICT, Andreas
proposed M-n/M-p for "the line-move-visual behaviour". Before that (bug #2887),
`pull-line-(up|down)' was proposed for M-n/M-p. Before that, Adrian proposed
having M-n/M-p move forwards/backwards among marks. And so on.
Please leave Emacs alone in this regard and just bind the keys you want for your
own use. There are so many possible commands to bind to such keys, and no real
reason to impose any of them by default.
One opinion.
