I did a quick check in elisp mode, and it seems that they are more or less useless there. (Apparently, they just stop at a string of more than one newline.) I'm wondering whether this is a good behavior. Maybe they should be equivalent to forward/backward-sexp? But what about, say, Python or C mode or other ones? Any ideas?
