I'm using S-TAB (backtab) all the time, e.g. to move to the previous
hunk in diff-mode, so menu-item is a saver.  After customizing
the option that you proposed to the value "Not at the beginning of the line"
now it's possible to use TAB to move the next diff hunk and S-TAB to
move to the previous diff hunk while keeping point on the first column.
And when point is on the second column then S-TAB hides all hunks,
and TAB opens the current hunk with outline-minor-mode-cycle.
