I'm wondering if you could absorb all the nifty features from
emacs-muse or planner, etc.  Especially various export formats and
more text markups?

In this generality: no.

The focus of muse is publishing, and that is not the focus of org-mode. 
 So blindly taking over more features is nothing I'd like to do.  If 
you have specific things you'd find particularly useful, and if you 
take the time to describe exactly how they should work instead of 
expecting me to do that, you chances are much better :-)

wow.  Can you tell I was sleep deprived.  I *do* know one aspect I
hope is maintained.  I thought I even proof read that.  I'm afraid to
go back and read the rest.

No, I can't think of any now.  It just works fantastic so far.
