The problem with the outlines is that they have to be maintained by hand. 
That's OK for special pages,
but what if you want to see an automatic listing of all journal listings, 
without having to drill down to
the Journal "parent" ? That's the ability I'm adding, experimentally to see 
if it helps:


But it may be that I don't understand the workflow you're following, or I'm 
stuck on the tagging TOC model. It
may be like comparing oranges and badgers ...
