Isn't this a legitimate case for overwriting these?  The outline  
structure is a hierarchical structure which can be traversed in a  
similar way as the parenthesis structure in Lisp code....  Emacs major  
mode conventions allow overwriting general commands when this makes  
sense for the mode and executed similiar functionality.

I am no exper here, so please tell me if this would be a reasonable  
interpretation or not.
