I'm no expert on WDired mode.  But I don't notice any difference
depending on the value of option `track-eol'.

According to the doc, when the value of
`wdired-use-dired-vertical-motion' is `sometimes' the cursor is moved to
the beginning of a file name only if point is before it "and `track-eol'
is non-nil".  I question the "and `track-eol' is non-nil" part - it
seems incorrect.

What I think I see is that when the value is `sometimes' and point is
before the file name then the cursor is moved to the beginning of a
file name regardless of the value of `track-eol'.  IOW, it does that
even when `track-eol' is nil.

Am I reading the doc wrong somehow?

You are right.  I fixed the doc string on the emacs-30 branch to
remove the reference to 'track-eol', and I'm therefore closing this
bug.
