I cannot see why this would be useful. Sentence commands will also not work with the other bullet styles. Note that you can use C-a in combination with an appropriate setting of `org-special-ctrl-a/e' to jump to the beginning of an item, after the bullet. I use the setting `reversed'. > > 4.

Yes, if the bullet starts at the left margin, the cycling skips the * bullet type, to avoid confusion with headlines. This was broken for the left-cycling. Works now. Thanks for your report.....
