Custom theorem-style environment

Question

I use LaTeX to typeset notes and case briefs for law school. So far I have settled for a theorem-style layout for each case using thmtools. Here is a minimal working example:

\documentclass[a4paper]{report} 
\usepackage{amsthm,thmtools}
\theoremstyle{plain}
\newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}[section]
\theoremstyle{definition}
\newtheorem{case}[theorem]{Case}
\renewcommand{\listtheoremname}{List of cases}

\begin{document}
\listoftheorems[ignoreall,show={case}]
\chapter{1}
\begin{case}[name=Case name]

\textbf{Facts}: foo.

\textbf{Issue}: bar.

\textbf{Rule}: foobar.

\textbf{Analysis}: fob.

\textbf{Conclusion}: bor.
\end{case}
%repeat ad nauseum
\end{document}

Specific issues

1. Case structured and defined by a LaTeX macro: Typing \textbf{Facts} and the rest is tedious for every case. Is there a way to define a specialized theorem-like environment that will simplify the matter? For example, I am vaguely familiar with the moderncv package and I know that the six braces in the command \cventry{}{}{}{}{}{} can be filled with different information with different formatting. Would it be possible to define some similar theorem-like environment where I could do, for example, \case{Case name}{foo.}{bar.}{foobar.}{fob.}{bor.} and get the same output as in my MWE? If so, how could I define this environment?

2. Table of cases: If this is possible, would it then be possible to print a list of case names with content from one of the braces appended to each case? Right now I have \listoftheorems[ignoreall,show={case}] which spits out a list of cases. But I'd rather have a list of cases with the foo. from each case appended to it. Might that be possible?

Here is something that you could use as a start:

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}% Just for this example
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\printcases}{\@starttoc{cse}}
\newcommand{\l@case}{\@dottedtocline{1}{0em}{1.5em}}
\makeatother
\newcommand{\case}[6]{%
\addcontentsline{cse}{case}{#1: #2}
\begin{description}
  \item[Case]: #1
  \item[Facts]: #2
  \item[Issue]: #3
  \item[Rule]: #4
  \item[Analysis]: #5
  \item[Conclusion]: #6
\end{description}
}
\begin{document}
\chapter{A chapter}
% \case{<name>}{<facts>}{<issue>}{<rule>}{<analysis>}{<conclusion>}
\case{Case name}{foo.}{bar.}{foobar.}{fob.}{bor.}
\case{Case name}{bar.}{bar.}{foobar.}{fob.}{bor.}
\case{Case name}{baz.}{bar.}{foobar.}{fob.}{bor.}

\printcases
\end{document}

Each case is set using a description (list-like) environment, allowing it to be broken at the page boundary (if needed). Additionally, each case name and page number is written to a ToC-like file (extension .cse) and printed using \printcases.
