Hi Nicolas,
Thankyou for your reply. Sorry I didn't explain myself properly. When using org-cycle (TAB) I often only want to open an entry (headline) to its CHILDREN visibility state, look at the subheadings (sub-entry headlines), and then fold it back into its FOLDED state. Often these sub-entries will have an appreciable amount of contents in them. So to go from the CHILDREN state to the FOLDED state I have to press TAB twice which causes a large amount of content to appear momentarily on screen. This experience is unpleasant and distracting, so much so that I am actively trying to find a way to simply org-cycle straight from the CHILDREN state to the FOLDED state. My patch demonstrates one possible way of realising this.
Cheers,
Matthew Palermo

I'm not sure to understand the problem you want to solve. Could you
expound it a bit?
