Meant to respond to this earlier. Reading this brought to mind the
setting =org-hide-leading-stars=. See this for more:
- http://orgmode.org/manual/Clean-view.html
Perhaps check out some of those variables, or at least the hiding of
leading stars, as it might at least give you some ideas of how this is
implemented in Org. I'm no elisper, so that's about the best I can
provide and I have no idea of Org's implementation will match your
goals, but it was worth a shot.
Best regards,
John
