The tutorial is the gate to Emacs.  We advertise it and urge the users
to read it before evrything else.  If we want them to become better
users, we should make the tutorial more useful and more appealing to
their ``way cool!'' feelings.

If you agree with the above principles, then you will agree that (a)
even the lazy users should be tutorial's target audience, and (b) we
shouldn't put those users to sleep right away by wasting 150 lines on
basic cursor motion.

Please note that I'm not as extreme as Francesco: I don't think we
should remove the cursor motion discussion altogether, or never
mention C-f and C-b.  I just think we don't need to talk about that
as much as it was necessary in 1990, say.
