"Narrative Mode" *Not* OO Request

I probably made a mistake in my previous message. It was more or less a 
random thought that I placed in my mind as having to do with outlining 
so I sent it to the list. But it really shouldn't be a feature request 
for OO as it would require much unproductive redesign. I think TOG 
should focus on the most innovative features of OO: scripting, XML, 
Keynote, OPML, column types, etc.
Now that I never use Word, there are times I'd like to have an 
elaborate text editor (Cocoa's shaping up nicely) or word processor 
with some very limited outlining capabilities (i.e., just 
expand/collapse and navigation, nothing more, nothing fancy). Because 
outlining requires some form of visual representation, I thought about 
a way to have it. In fact, at first, I thought a heading should be bold 
only if it has children. I don't want another outliner or a major 
redesign in OO (I sincerely think it's going in the right direction). I 
just would like to outline when I write.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm just absent-minded, these days...
