Is there an outline program that allows tagging text with different layers?

Now that I know what you’re trying to do, I believe that the solution might be similar to some of those suggested here: http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/viewt/2666/
(I understand the problem is not the same, but the solution might.)

In particular, I would look to Noteliner, where you can have outlines in pages, plus the handy navigation pane for overview. I.e. you can have an outline of outlines, which gives you a quick way to view your 200-page outline from a 10,000 ft perspective. In addition, you can use tags to quickly jump to the important points.
