If you run `org-backward-paragraph` from the `#+BEGIN_SRC` line of a source block it gives the error message "Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)", instead of moving point.
I tried tracking it down and this error message comes from a call to `re-search-backward` in the source for `org-backward-paragraph`: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (when (re-search-backward "^[ \t]*$" contents-begin 'move) (skip-chars-forward " \r\t\n" origin) (if (= (point) origin) (goto-char contents-begin) (beginning-of-line))) #+END_SRC This excerpt is from inside a branch of a `cond` that tests for `(memq type '(src-block verse-block))`. I don't really understand what the code is trying to do or why the case of source blocks and verse block should be handled together. Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report?
