I've written a very quick and dirty derived mode for org that implements the following keystrokes: Tab is demote. Shift-tab is promote. Enter is org-insert-heading. C-tab is the old Shift-Tab C-j is the old Return.
I know it messes with the default org configuration, which is part of why I have not posted it anywhere, but it works *extremely* well for me when I'm taking notes e.g. in lecture, and I find myself using jot-mode (what I named it) just as often as org-mode proper. If people are interested, I'd be glad to email it/post it on EmacsWiki or Worg (although I should warn you, it is probably very unstylish Elisp, too!).
