Maybe also it would make sense to add single key equivalents,
so e.g. next visible headings could be visited with
C-c @ n n n n …

Ok, let's put navigation and editing keys into one repeatable keymap
(maybe without outline-insert-heading and outline-mark-subtree).

Indeed, these are among the most frequently used keys.
