The binding seems to make sense, although it's obviously not following
the major mode binding conventions.

Of course, org-mode should not bind "C-x n s" blindly, but should
instead use the same prefix as the one used by the "narrow submap".
But since (contrary to C-x and a few others) we do not have such an
explicit submap, it's pretty difficult.  I guess it could use where-is
on both narrow-to-region and widen and try to find the common
ancestor... Or we could simply define ctl-x-n-prefix, and then org-mode
could use where-is on that one.
