C-e is bound to org-end-of-line which does the stutter step when you have a wide buffer in a narrow window: it stops at the first previously invisible character[fn:1]. If you have a very wide screen (e.g. a table with a hundred columns or something like that) it might take a few steps before you get to the end of the line. But the main reason for org-end-of-line's existence is its behavior on headlines (and the setting of org-special-ctrl-a/e is very relevant). C-h f org-end-of-line RET and C-h v org-special-ctrl-a/e RET make for enlightening reading. Nick Footnotes: [fn:1] well, it's invisible if truncate-lines is t - part of the problem of describing the bahavior is the settings of all these flags. Tables look ugly if wrapped, so you probably want truncate-lines set to t anyway.
