Hmm. OK. It seems like a lot of extra work to me, but fair enough.

Notes-taking and more to the point keeping my notes _organised_ is one
of the many things I use MS Word's Outline view for, and for which
reason I still haven't entirely switched to LibreOffice which doesn't
have Outline view.

WPS Office does have an outliner, and the one in the current version
of WPS Office is much better than it was about 3y ago, the last time I
checked -- but unfortunately the current version of WPS Office only
uses the Office 2007 _et seq_  ribbon-type interface, which for me
renders it unusable. Apparently there used to be an option to switch
back in a prior release but this is now gone.
