As for the patch posted here, I think it makes sense to make such changes only if they are done in all modes. Doing that only in one major mode will only confuse people. So if you'd like to pursue this change (and I do think it would be a good change), please make the change in a way that will produce similar behavior in all the other modes with define their beginning-of-defun functionality. Thanks, and sorry about your reports falling through the cracks.
