[Vimoutliner] Proposal: reverse indenting outliner

[ImLikeWhoa]

I keep a lot of note and project files in the form of outlines.   I now just
read them as text files, but would like to fold away sections of my file the
way vim's TVO does.  

The present TVO presents outlines in the form like the normal Word outline
style, namely

Main heading
	subheading
	another subheading
		subheading of this subheading
			smaller headings and text.

My outline format is based on the notion that indenting a paragraph marks a
division and so more indenting (leading tabs) should mark larger divisions. 
so my outlines look like this:

					Main heading
				subheading
				another subheadding
			subheading of this subheading
		smaller headings
text

It seems like the TVO vim plugin could be taught to handle this indent-based
outline style with a few minor changes in the program.  The scheme would be
the same as TVO, except that more tabs indicate a higher level of heading
rather than a lower one.  The indent style is readily distinguishable from
the normal outline style in the source file, because the first line in the
indent style begins with several tab characters, while a normal .otl file
does not.

			So I have two queries for you forum members
		Do you know of anyone who has thought about implementing this indent-based
outline scheme using the TVO plugin?
		Would you be interested in implementing this mode within TVO if I paid
you?   Since it would fit easily into TVO, others could then use it, too.
