Please note what appear to be bugs in Gnu Emacs:

1.  The beginning-of-buffer and end-of-buffer functions also set the
mark.  This can often be troubling, if not also dangerous, as one can
inadvertantly delete text when one doesn't want to, or can delete text
other than what one wants to.

2.  forward-paragraph and backward-paragraph don't seem to work
properly.  They run okay on the first invocation, but on successive
invocations they behave strangely.
