  Just a note: pressing E in the agenda view you will see an excerpt
of each section's context.
  It shows some lines from the content.
  Maybe it could show in addition the names of the headings which form
the outline path. Or maybe a simplified form of them (like: the first
3 characters of each heading: /Pro…/Web…/tas…/Design. Or the first
word. Or the first N words that make that heading different from its
siblings.)
