My main concern is then to have some explanation for people not familiar
with either package (like me) to briefly summarise the main differences
between your package and org-tree-slide, making it easier to decide
which of the two one wants to use.

Most of my comments are really just superficial observations that anyone
would make with some Elisp familiarity and no prior familiarity with a
codebase.  That being said, if you have any concrete suggestions on how
to implement something, I am glad to comment on that.
