two pane outliner question

In the interest of avoiding the appearance of threadjacking for commercial purposes, let me point out that there are several other programs that defy the conventional categories:

MaxThink - the volume sorting capacity makes me unwilling to lump it in with all the other single-pane outliners, despite the identical layout
org-mode - a text processor outliner capable of multiple panes, with GTD and hotkey sorting support
personalbrain - not an outliner at all, but a mindmap database webber
others?

I’m working on a page that explores these differences, but I won’t link to it for the aforementioned reason.

I think a discussion of this category system would be useful, since the OP’s somewhat vague description of what he was looking for forced me to think about it.
