 Ummmm... of what use is this binding?  That is _guaranteed_ to be
 the current line you are on, so it is equivalent to doing
 (beginning-of-line) 
Yes, but `goto-line' will ask you on which line you want to go.

It looks like mildly overdoing it to me, but given how much we've
overloaded the modeline, I don't see how it can do any harm.
