Not quite what you're asking for, but might work as well depending
on other things you haven't mentioned:

- forward-paragraph and backward-paragraph (bound to M-{ and M-})
- forward-sexp and backward-sexp (M-f and M-b)
- forward-page and backward-page (C-x ] and C-x [), which may require
  you to set the `page-delimiter' variable accordingly.
