When we will have enough outline functions to be used as values
of `outline-default-state', then `diff-mode' doesn't need to provide
its own default state functions - `diff-mode' could just set
a suitable buffer-local value of `outline-default-state'
from the list of options provided by `outline-default-state'.
Also `outline-default-state' could support a string value
applied as a regexp on outline heading lines to decide
whether to hide or show that outline.

`outline-default-state' could provide an explicit value
that will show all outlines. Maybe even the default value
of `outline-default-state' could be changed to this explicit value.
Then calling `outline-apply-default-state' interactively
will show all outlines. This way it will be more clear
to users what is going on.

Ideally, there should be an outline-mode function for most values,
so there should be no need for special handling, e.g. instead of
special handling of `only-headings', an outline command should
handle this by funcall (maybe there is an existing function that does this?)
Only integer and string values should have special handling here.

I don't know where is the problem. For example, in etc/compilation.txt
these lines set local variables correctly:
;;; outline-minor-mode-cycle: t
;;; outline-minor-mode-highlight: t
;;; mode: outline-minor

Good idea.
