I tried to modify the format of `C-h b' to output '*' headings,
but unfortunately after enabling `outline-minor-mode'
TAB has no effect on such headings.

I wonder why heading cycling implemented in this bug report
supports only `outline-mode', but not `outline-minor-mode'?

It would make sense in `outline-minor-mode' if TAB typed on a heading
then cycle outline heading.  If TAB is typed outside of a heading,
then use the default TAB binding, e.g. in case of the Help buffer
navigate to the next link.
