If Omni could get Graffle and Outliner to talk to each other live, I bet 
it would be a whole lot less work to add the fullscreen feature to 
Graffle than to start writing another app.

Writing another app has some pretty significant overhead: licensing, 
distribution, managing feedback, tech support, mailing lists etc.

Then there's the issue of keeping OmniPresenter's capability compatible 
and on a par with both Outliner and Graffle.

I'd rather have it all in one app!
