As this issue and #4914 approach their THIRTEENTH BIRTHDAYS, with no resolution
in sight ... I continue to use MSWord for most of my large projects. 

Look - on this issue and #4914, both of which are old enough to start dating,
just TRUST THE USERS TO KNOW WHAT FEATURES THEY NEED! 

Please go see this page ... It explains exactly why we want Outline view (and
"normal" view. With NO need to import mind maps or look back and forth from
side bar to text and back, you can see the information structure of the
document. 

http://www.colelearning.net/ilo/English/Module_1/026_writing_strategy.htm

What they don't show is that you can drag an entire section  - if I decide that
Horses should be the first topic, I can click on the top-level heading of that
section and drag it and everything subordinate to it to the top of the
document. 

Doesn't sound like much, but if someone is writing a 100+ page thesis where
information order is important, seeing the headings and arranging them into a
logical flow is part of the process. The more closely it is integrated into
text entry and editing the better.
