The up and down arrow keys should not wrap around the beginning or end of the list
If I hold down the up arrow, it should move the cursor up and then stop at the top of the list. Similarly, the down arrow should stop at the bottom of the list.
The current behavior where it wraps around is unlike any other text editor or outliner. The standard behavior in virtually all applications is for the up and down keys to stop moving at the beginning or end of the document.
The wrapping is very disorienting; surely it can't be considered a good thing when no other app works like this? I would be most grateful if it were fixed. Thanks!

Thanks for implementing this! It makes Checkvist much more consistent with other apps.
Raj, I hear you on liking the way it worked previously, but give the Home and End keys a try. I think they give all the power of the previous behavior (a quick and easy way to jump from the beginning to the end or vice versa) without the nonstandard behavior.

Actually, we've already implemented it, can be checked on http://beta.checkvist.com
Ray, do you know that you can use Home, End keys to navigate to the beginning and the end of the list and Ctrl+Home/End to move currently selected task to the beginning/end of the list?

If you do implement this, can you make it an option. I like that this occurs.

Thanks for sharing, your idea is quite reasonable.
