It is of course, as > Bastien pointed out, quite hard to name this function after that ... What does this function really? It operates the action bound to M- according to the context. So an appropriate name might be something like `org-contextual-metaleft'. I think using `org-metaleft' instead of `org-contextual-metaleft' is not that confusing, especially because the docstring is clear. Finding the right level of "description" when naming contextual commands is tricky, `org-metaleft' isn't a bad trade-off. -- Bastien
