It does via outline-magic.el (now "maintained" by me:
https://github.com/tj64/outline-magic), and the short story is (my
interpretation!) that outline-magic.el was the first step of Carsten
Dominik towards Org-mode, thus it adds many org-style features to
outline-mode. He later abandoned it in favor of Org-mode and asked me to
take over maintainance when I showed interest in it.

It is fully integrated (and partly improved and expanded) in outshine.el
now, so if you want Org-like behaviour for outline-(minor)-mode you
should really use outshine rather than outline-magic.

 "outline with outshine outshines outline"
