There is one in the works (and see my previous post).

We have 56 votes by now (not counting "don't care"), so let me try to summarise. There are two clear trends:
- The movement by logical lines is preferred (by a majority of more than two thirds).
- In spite of this, the upstream default for line-move-visual should be left alone.

Great work! This will be yet one more way that Gentoo brings more value than the random Linux distro. |

| Personally, I don't care, as I would customize it anyway, but the package should provide clear instructions on how to customize the feature upon installation. Generally, I'm rather in favor of going with the upstream, also to support new users switching to Gentoo. |
