Maybe better/easier hierarchy arrangement of individual notes… I mean if you think about each bullet point being a file, then that is another level of outlining.
With easy keyboard controls and views, it could be very powerful.
Just an idea.

@Licat had already good development experience . That’s okay just like Dynalist.
And Yes, after WYSIWYM will be done and API. Hope enhence outliner experience.

I would love to be able to put a note into outline mode. When I’m making raw notes or brainstorming, something about being trapped in an outline helps me keep my flow. I think it’s not having to think about structure.

I’ll push it after v1.0 ( after WYSIWYM done ).
There’s a gap in note-taking app marketing.
Support
- Offline(LocalStore) &
- Backlink / bi-directional link &
- Good enough Markdown mode &
- Good enough Outliner mode &
- Good enough Graph view .
@macedotavares: I use Typora too, and find its sidepane outliner to be very good, e.g. it shows which header section is currently active.
Most people seem to refer to “outliner” as a bullet point list within a note, but the sidepane outliner needs to be improved too.

Most of outliner feature request are about more easier and faster control block .
1. drag and drop bullet - by mouse ,without selected text.
-
expand all and collapse all - by keyboard,without selected text first .
-
move block by keyboard ,without selected text first.
-

Ability to zoom in on bullets ???
I think it’ll change the markdown core.
Not sure if I understand.
IMHO, it belongs to “outliner mode experience”.
I do not now if it will be solved by plugin or by core Obsidian.
There are text editors able to focus on specified portion of dokument, the rest being hidden or locked for editation.
For example https://www.emeditor.com/text-editor-features/more-features/narrowing/
So there is no risk of undesired change for underlying markdown dokument.
Here is even request specifically for this: Ability to freeze parts of a note
keywords: narrow, restrict, focus
I don’t know if it’s possible to this with markdown, but a “dynalist edit mode” would really be awesome. Then Obsidian would be the only content creation tool I need. 
So far, I am really in love with obsidian - and starting to get my PKM into it!

This is a great feature, but I don’t think Obsidian can do it because Obsidian is based on Markdown File not Bullet Item. And doing so will completely change Obsidian’s infrastructure.
It looks like asking a offline version of Roam. I will be very happy if Obsidian team could consider this.

I don’t see why this can’t happen… Not that long ago block references were thought to be impossible or unlikely… Look what happened 
Logseq is a new roam-like outliner thats fully offline/local and based on .md files. So it can certainly be done…
Considering that the Obsidian team has so much experience with outliners (Dynalist), i cant see how something like this couldnt be brought to life. Who knows, maybe we’ll be pleasantly surprised with the new WYSIWYM editor…
IMO, its not a matter of this being possible or not… the question is more about who’s going to implement it - the Obs team, or a 3rd party plugin, and when…
I constantly still feel pulled to outliner apps like Roam because its just so much swifter of a way to capture quick thoughts and brainstorm… If I could do that in a similar way within Obsidian, i’d never leave the app! Im sure it would convert A LOT of people to obsidian as well…

I just can do LIKE your thread, I can’t do anything else. the decision made by obsidian’s developers.
Obsidian developers, please! We need a roam-like outliner experience.
I have seen different ways to work with Obsidian, bullet list, outliner plugin but it’s not the same.
I try to explain myself better.
In roam or remnote the note has a hierarchical internal structure. The structure is not given by the headings, because there is no need to give a title to everything. Each item is not a paragraph like in bulleted lists, instead it can be multiple paragraphs (you can wrap), you can insert an image, an equation, a block of code.
So here are the limitations I see in Obsidian.
If you want to use headings, you are required to title everything. For example
# Morning
## Fitness
blah blah blah blah
Another subject
As you can see to insert another subject in the morning I must necessarily give it another ## heading, otherwise it will be part of the previous ## heading.
If instead I want to use the outliner plugin, besides some anomalies, there is the problem that in one place I can’t insert images or code blocks.
One more thing: when I create a reference to an item, this reference is only and only to the item and not to its children, so in the preview I won’t be able to see everything.
I deeply ask to the developers to meet these needs and I would like to discuss with you.
Curious if you have found any additional workarounds after posting this, as I’m in the same predicament. The outliner mode seems to fit my brain, but it doesn’t have the same ability as currently configured that Roam has, which shows a hierarchy above each individual note block child.
This would be CLUTCH to see something like this.
Now there is Logseq and Obsodian’s outliner plug-in…
