Help> Set the current horizontal position as a goal for C-n and C-p.

Help> With a non-nil argument, clears out the goal column
Help> so that C-n and C-p resume vertical motion.

don't you also want to say "and arrow keys, etc.", in addition to just
C-n and C-p?

Indeed, perhaps scan the rest of the emacs doc strings for similar
problems...

And hmmm, maybe also have a setting so one can either use the arrows
or C-p,n to do the non goal-column behavior at the same time C-p,n or
the arrows do the goal-column behavior.
