I'm a writer, not a coder, but I use this to move a single line (which usually means a whole paragraph for me in Markdown) to the bottom of the file and then come back to the same neighborhood. Also opens the fold if there is one. A Vim wizard will probably show us how to do it in Vimscript. " Line To Bottom: " Moves a single line of text to bottom.
