[O] One-keystroke command to move blocks of text up and down

2013-02-24 Thread Susan Cragin
I use Meta-up-arrow and Meta-down-arrow to move headings in org and entries in spreadsheets. Would like to be able to use the same or similar command to move blocks of text up or down. The current solution--highlight then kill/yank--is just too slow. Suggestions?

M-up and M-down also move paragraphs and most blocks (in Org 7.9). Unfortunately, binding is shadowed when trying to move a src block. When I try that I get these messages: Cannot drag this element forward. Cannot drag this element backward.
