I think implementing this will actually end up making certain repeat-maps
tedious to use.  One example that comes to mind is
`outline-navigation-repeat-map' where it is quite easy to misfire f/b
when you actually want n/p.  Starting the map again with C-c @ C-n is
quite tedious.  I hope you reconsider this, or make the current
behaviour opt-in.

Although triggering repeat-map on error is strange for the scenario in
OP, I hope the above convinces you regardless.  I only noticed the
behaviour on error is desirable after I started using the outline functions
a bit more.
