> Hence my question: how to deal with this?  I guess the options are:
> (1) Keep the behavior of these functions the way they are.
> (2) Align the behavior of these functions with what other modes do.

(3) Keep these *commands* (maybe marking them as obsolete) and add new
    *functions* to use in beginning-of-defun-function and
    end-of-defun-function
