Maybe. Right now, standing on one foot, I'd imagine the main bridge
would be conversions Leo->VimOutliner and VimOutliner->Leo. Plus
possible support for some of the most common VimOutliner keystrokes,
although you already mentioned your disinterest in modal editing.

Doubtful. If we wanted a Vim engine, we'd keep adding features to
VimOutliner. We've added just about every VimOutliner feature we can
using Vim as the engine.

Probably not -- same reason as #2

Clones will be an important part of the new program -- we've been
trying unsuccessfully to add clones to VimOutliner for a decade. The
second clause of your preceding sentence went right over my head -- I
don't know what sentenels or gnx's are.
