Thanks for bringing those to my attention; I don't subscribe to emacs-devel.

We could certainly modify bibtex-beginning-of-entry to take an optional
argument that allows it to move past the current entry if point is
already at the beginning. I wouldn't want to modify the current behavior
because other packages rely on bibtex-beginning/end-of-entry not to move
past the current one (e.g. bibtex-completion.el and org-ref.el).
