This sounds like a great idea to me.  Yes please :)

I get very confused every time I open one of these files.  It looks 
sufficiently similar to org to switch my org-mode reflexes on, and besides I've 
never see the plain outline-mode used anywhere else.  Also, syntax highlighting 
is confusing (it's not clear what is a title and isn't, e.g. in etc/TODO some 
of the bullets are full titles and others are wrapped, causing weird 
highlighting inconsistencies).
