Add markdown-move-* Commands to Menu

[hmelman]

I use markdown mode for a lot of notes and lists to share with other devices which have apps that can edit and render markdown nicely. I envy some of the org-mode functionality but the format doesn't work on my other devices. I wanted some of the list reordering commands that org has bound on M-arrows and didn't find a minor-mode to use with markdown. It was only after some digging I found it already worked with the markdown-move-* commands. Thank you!

I wondered why I didn't know about them already and realized they weren't in the Markdown menu. I think they should be. For completeness here are all the bound markdown commands that I think should be considered for the menu.

;; List editing
(define-key map (kbd "M-<up>") 'markdown-move-up)
(define-key map (kbd "M-<down>") 'markdown-move-down)
;; Subtree editing
(define-key map (kbd "M-S-<up>") 'markdown-move-subtree-up)
(define-key map (kbd "M-S-<down>") 'markdown-move-subtree-down)
(define-key map (kbd "M-S-<left>") 'markdown-promote-subtree)
(define-key map (kbd "M-S-<right>") 'markdown-demote-subtree)
;; Movement
(define-key map (kbd "M-{") 'markdown-backward-paragraph)
(define-key map (kbd "M-}") 'markdown-forward-paragraph)
(define-key map (kbd "M-n") 'markdown-next-link)
(define-key map (kbd "M-p") 'markdown-previous-link)
;; Element insertion
(define-key map "\C-c\C-aw" 'markdown-insert-wiki-link)
(define-key map "\C-c\C-sk" 'markdown-insert-kbd)
(define-key map "\C-c\C-s\C-b" 'markdown-blockquote-region)
(define-key map "\C-c\C-s\C-p" 'markdown-pre-region)
(define-key map "\C-c\C-sP" 'markdown-insert-gfm-code-block)

Thanks for pointing out these omissions. I finally got around to reorganizing the menu (which was getting rather long) and adding the missing commands. I hope the new menu layout is helpful, but let me know if you have any comments or suggestions to improve it.

My one suggestion is to have the menu items show the arrow based keybindings instead of the C-c C-x prefixed ones. They're much easier to use and remember and org-mode does this so there's some precedent. So that would be for:

• Promote Header
• Demote Header
• Indent List Item
• Exdent List Item
• Move List Item Up
• Move List Item Down
