I have the same bindings .. well it is (scroll-up 2) in my case.

And the same problem. If often add priorities to tasks (#A,..) when I
want to scroll down.


I just cooked up the code below. I sets up the shift up/down to
scrolling. IF in org-mode and NOT at the beginning of the line then
the org shift functions are called.


(require 'org)

(global-set-key [S-up] 'vj-scroll-down-hook)
(global-set-key [S-down] 'vj-scroll-up-hook)

(defun vj-org-shift-keys-setup ()
  (interactive)
  (local-set-key [S-up] 'vj-scroll-down)
  (local-set-key [S-down] 'vj-scroll-up))


(add-hook 'org-mode-hook  'vj-org-shift-keys-setup)

(defun vj-scroll-up (&optional arg)
  "Vj scroll-up."
  (interactive)
  (if (and (equal major-mode 'org-mode) (not (bolp)))
    ;; In org-mode and not at beginning of line
    (org-shiftup arg)
    ;; else
    (scroll-up 2)))


(defun vj-scroll-down (&optional arg)
  "Vj scroll-down."
  (interactive)
  (if (and (equal major-mode 'org-mode) (not (bolp)))
    ;; In org-mode and not at beginning of line
    (org-shiftdown arg)
    ;; else
    (scroll-down 2)))
