I thought your point was that TAB for cycling also gets in the way if
it's available anywhere other than at the beginning of a line.

So I think it's actually the _same_ functionality, and only the naming
doesn't reflect that.  To put it in a slightly different way, there
would be no need for a `outline-mode-cycle-map' if something called
`outline-speed-keys-map' (a keymap installed only at column 0 of
heading lines) existed.
