+invoke these commands by typing `TAB' and `S-TAB' anywhere on a heading line,

+specific positions on the heading, like only at the line's beginning or
+line's end.  This allows these keys to be bound to their usual commands,
+as determined by the major mode, elsewhere on the heading lines.
+This option is only in effect when `outline-minor-mode-cycle' is non-nil."
