Maybe I should start a new thread with this, and maybe this will make 
absolutely no sense, but (that rarely stops me ;-)--how to explain what 
I'm thinking.

For many (text based) file formats (i.e., like program source code, some 
text markups, ...), other editors with folding capability automatically 
create fold points based on features of the language.  (For example, 
(in many folding editors) C creates fold points based on "{" and 
"}" (among other things).

Would it make sense for Leo to create nodes to make an outline structure 
similar to what one of those editors would create based on the same "{" 
and "}" (for example).

I won't immediately give an example of the node structure required in 
Leo, but I could generate one if desired (and might do that if no one 
likes this idea anyway ;-)

For the askSam / wiki like "thingie" I'm trying to "mash up", this 
sounds ideal.
