you have two possibilities: extend the outline plugin or create a new plugin 
which implement toolProvider.
the first one is the easiest but that would probably conflict with basic 
outline functionalities.
the second one would force you to write the javascript dhtml for handling a 
drawing tool, which is not so easy to say the least.

do you mean the polygon is used as a geometry for query? well, thats what 
the query plugin does as far as I know.
