Hi Charlie,
You can hide columns to make IQ feel more like a plain vanilla one-pane outliner.
(uncheck Column > Show Columns or use the ALT+C shortcut)
There is also a Mind Map view if you’re more of a 2-D kind of guy.

Although they may not be robust enough for the OP’s needs, Outwiker handles equations and simple tables. The navigation pane can be turned off. Cherrytree has code boxes, which includes LaTex - although displaying equations is on the to-do list.

They might be helpful as a temporary solution anyway. And the price is right. (free)

To be clear this is not an outline approach, but it may be a good solution for organising material, similar to PiggyDB http://piggydb.net/
