It does not work the same way in the "rest of emacs": sexp commands
behave differently depending on the mode. You can e.g.
(set-syntax-table lisp-mode-syntax-table)
and then the sexp commands will behave lispishly. C-mode buffers do
the equivalent of
(set-syntax-table c-mode-syntax-table)
and text mode buffers (of which org-mode is a derived mode) do
(set-syntax-table text-mode-syntax-table)
Setting the syntax table to e.g. the lisp mode one will certainly allow
you to kill quoted strings with kill-sexp. Whether it has other, less
desirable consequences, I don't know: you'll just have to try and see.
