The heading outline is a great tool for quickly skimming and jumping around a note. I think the ability to do some editing directly from this outline would be very convenient, and for me would go a long way to bridging the gap between Obsidian’s heading-based organization and the more familiar nested-bullets outliner organization.
For example, drag-and-dropping a heading to a different position in the outline and having the heading in the file, plus everything below it, shift to that position relative to the other headings in the file. You could even have the ability to promote/demote headings, similar to how folders work in a lot of sidebar file managers: e.g. drag an H1 into another H1 to turn it into an H2 subheading, and drag an H1 into that to make it an H3.
