I agree with removing the `outline-heading-end-regexp' setting.  I thought
about adding a custom variable since some people might prefer the
current setting, but I reconsidered that setting it as a file local
variable would be sufficient as described in docstring:

#+begin_quote
The recommended way to set this is with a ‘Local Variables:’ list
in the file it applies to.
#+end_quote

Is there any comments on extending `hs-special-modes-alist'?  Attached
are revised patches.  I would like to know if it is worth extending
`hs-special-modes-alist'.
