Thx!  Yes, to use the `wrap-around' you mentioned, just set the option
to `cycle'.

OK.

I'll try not to mention cursor/point in docstring when possible.

Yeah, docstring should state it.

> Drew:

You can discard them by setting `dired-listing-switches' to an
appropriate value if you don't like them.  The value is passed to the
program `ls'.  On MS-Windows things seem to be a little different, not
sure.

To sum up, new patch will provide an option which controls the style
of moving point.
