The documentation in the Emacs Manual suggests that simply
loading foldout.el alters the behavior of Outline mode.
Is that true?  If so, it is a bug.

Someone who uses it, please respond.

I don't use foldout, but from what I can see, all it does is to add
some extra keys to outline-mode-map.  All the extra functionality is
bound to those keys.  Is that a problem?  (dired-x does the same thing
for dired, after all).

Yes and no.  Just loading a library should not change Emacs behavior,
since use of custom can load the library.  Defining added commands
that don't shadow anything is on the borderline, so it is not really a
bad thing.  Still, it would be cleaner if the user had to call a
function to call to enable the changes made by the library.
However, I guess we don't need to change that now.
