Yes, patch welcome.

IIUC, it would be "and", not "or": first use

  (setq-local org-hide-leading-stars (default-value 'org-hide-leading-stars))

to set org-hide-leading-stars to a temporary value *and*

  (kill-local-variable 'org-hide-leading-stars)

to restore the global value.

If you can make something that works, please send a patch.

Thanks!
