Holding the Ctrl key while the mouse is positioned on the heading will change
the pointer to a hand pointer. Then left-click to toggle visibility of content
from selected heading to next heading. Right-click to hide or show all content
from selected heading (and all its subheadings) to next heading at same outline
level.

Here is a link to the help page for this:

The icon is removed when the mouse goes out of the heading frame. It is not a
timer that determines this. The mouse does not need to be over the text. The
frame extends the width of the page. Moving the mouse near where the icon
appears will reveal it.

Or to the right for RTL users.
>This may be the more elegant solution.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into doing it.
