I'd definitely find this useful.
I started using a version of folding.el that was posted to Usenet in the
early 90's and still use it -- updated to a version from melpa a couple
of years ago. The emacspeak codebase uses this in all files.
Other elisp libraries that bring similar functionality:
1. allout -- has been part of emacs for a long time, but has its own
drawbacks
2. More recent: outshine which gives you similar functionality to
what you outline.
3. Lacking anything else, I use emacs' selective-display to
collapse code below a specific indentation level (C-x $).
All that said, having something common across Emacs libraries
would be a big win
