Fantastic! happy to hear your finding it useful

Done, C-c C-v n and C-c C-v p now navigate to the next and previous code
blocks respectively. C-c C-v p used to be used for viewing the expanded
body of a code block, this functionality is now behind C-c C-v v for
"view"

Done, C-c C-v g for "goto code block" now has completing read. There is
also now C-c C-v r for "goto result" which also has completing reads

There are already C-c C-v b and C-c C-v s for evaluating the current
buffer, or the current subtree respectively. Also, with the new "goto
next code block" functionality it should be easy to implement the
behavior you describe in a short macro.

Thanks for pointing this out, I've made this change as well.
Thanks for all the great suggestions! -- Eric
