From which position? When point is right before '{', it doesn't move in 
my testing. It does move when it was before '%'.

I don't know. Seems like this method is good for a lot of things, but 
some fiddly details are going to be different from the default forward-sexp.

ruby-mode's sexp navigation is also not ideal in its own way, and it's 
been useful anyway.
