Are you sure about modifying the global value of hack-local-variables-hook
instead of the buffer-local hook with `nil t' at the end?

When this feature will be used a lot, even variable names will affect
usability - with longer names usability deteriorates, and 40 characters of
'outline-default-state-subtree-visibility' takes half of the standard window 
width.
Would it be possible to find a shorter name?

Since it defines the rules, how about 'outline-default-rules'?
It has the same length as 'outline-default-state', so these names
will align nicely:

# Local Variables:
# outline-default-state: 1
# outline-default-rules: ((match-regexp . "ChangeLog"))
# mode: outline-minor
# End:

Also outline-long-line-threshold and outline-line-count-threshold could share
the same prefix, maybe:

# outline-default-long-line: 200
# outline-default-line-count: 100
