The <Leader> character can be set by the user. So in a mapping you can 
use <Leader> instead of a literal character.

The default <Leader> character (if mapleader is not set or empty) is the 
backslash character.

:help leader
:help mapleader

The <LocalLeader> is like <Leader> but is for mappings that are local to 
a buffer. If not set, it defaults to the same thing as <Leader>.

Vimoutliner should be using <LocalLeader> for its command mappings.

:help localleader
:help maplocalleader
