I think outline minor mode and org mode should coordinate to work 
well with diff-mode TAB moves.  Use TAB and S-TAB for moving forward 
and backward to points of interest.  Use ` immediately above the TAB 
for operating on that context.  What you can do is have a file for 
design language roadmap guidance forward to overtime have 
contributors align how the TAB is to be used and phase in new 
behavior.  Give it 18-months to align and grandfather in old behavior 
people have grown callous for and are insensitive to pain point.
