This sounds like a job for... Scrivener! :D

Building on Kate's question:

Create your outline.
Write each section of your outline as
a separate Scrivener document. Label
them appropriately. (II/A/3,
III/B/4/i)
Once it's all on paper, you can
rearrange the sections however you
need.
If you find yourself writing extra
analyses, create new individual
documents, and then they can be moved
around at the end. You can add them
to the existing outline structure, or append
them in the middle. There's nothing
wrong with an outline which goes I,
II, IIa, III, IIIa, IIIb, etc. if it
helps you keep track.
Compile the document and read it in
order several times as you go. This
will help you to see if sections need
to be reorganized.
