Hi Nicolas,

Thankyou for your reply. Sorry I didn't explain myself properly. When using
org-cycle (TAB) I often only want to open  an entry (headline) to its
CHILDREN visibility state, look at the subheadings (sub-entry headlines),
and then fold it back into its FOLDED state. Often these sub-entries will
have an appreciable amount of contents in them. So to go from the CHILDREN
state to the FOLDED state I have to press TAB twice which causes a large
amount of content to appear momentarily on screen. This experience is
unpleasant and distracting, so much so that I am actively trying to find a
way to simply org-cycle straight from the CHILDREN state to the FOLDED
state. My patch demonstrates one possible way of realising this.

Cheers,
Matthew Palermo
