easy-kill cannot select anything except a line in an org table row

You can download this file: https://github.com/steckerhalter/steckemacs/blob/master/steckemacs.org and try to copy anything under the "Key Bindings" section. Currently, easy-kill can only copy a row and nothing else.

Seems to work for me. Could you show me how to reproduce the problem? Thanks.

Actually, it's just list M-w l that can't be selected. In the org table, you look at any row that has a list (currently, the first row contains a lambda), try M-g l.

Do you mean M-w l cannot select things enclosed by ()? M-w l now uses org mode's parser to select elements. so whatever it selects it means something in the org-mode syntax. (...) is not a syntactic construct in org mode.

But we should probably support (), [] and {} regardless of mode syntax. I will get this sorted before next release.
