The best set of mappings is what you make yourself. That's like: don't

If the user wants to edit long lines, (s)he cannot write a quick mapping
on-the-fly, because he needs something like this:

IMHO these mappings are a better choice:

I have files where I intentionally have long lines and I use gj and gk (so
much that I've remapped them to Up and Down). I don't see why you gripe
about a bunch of mappings: the mappings I need, or want, are in my vimrc or
in some other script,

IMHO it is important that function keys (with the exception of F1 = :help)

Hi group,
I would like to be able to specify that the fragment of text in a
folded line be colored as it would normally appear (i.e. in it's
unfolded state).
This would make folding much more useful to me. This would
facilitate reading the contents of a properly folded file at a
glance, and
