OmniOutliner and More

What is missing from More(TM) into OmniOutliner? For me:
-Text attached with a line (pressing Enter)
-Dynamic settings (level 1 to n, font=blabla, etc.) and mostly:
--Numeric lines (1, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc.) instead of only bullets
--Space between levels
--Break page
-Header and Footer with dynamic elements:
--Date
--Page number, number of pages
--Name of current level n
--Filename (with no extension :-)
That is good enough for a real use.

What was missing from More(TM) 3.1?
-Drag and drop capabilities
-Waterprints options
-Columns :-)

I need OmniOutliner as a light and powerful documentation tool, with 
different outprints (native, pdf, html) generated at a single Save command 
at different places (on my hard disk (native file), into a mail (pdf for 
diffusion), online (html on a server)). I feel there are things that may 
be generic Services.

I like the "make a tool with all the fun of Symantec's much-loved and 
missed MoreTM application for Mac OS, but we're going to be adding new 
features in later versions that no outliner has ever had" statement.
I hope the best :-)

Regards,
Bertrand.
