Don't know your feelings on this subject, but I'm kinda proud. :)

Thanks, but it introduced a regression. Insert some text at the end, and
"xxx" will get displayed twice:
(defun test2 ()
(interactive)
(ignore-errors
(kill-buffer "test"))
(pop-to-buffer "test")
(add-to-invisibility-spec '(... . t))
(insert (propertize "foo" 'invisible '...))
(let ((ov (make-overlay (point) (point))))
(overlay-put ov 'invisible t)
(overlay-put ov 'window (selected-window))
(overlay-put ov 'after-string
(propertize "xxx" 'face 'highlight)))
(insert " "))

I see. Well, that unfortunate. I can only say that it goes against my
expectations.

Not into the second one, so far. But the first example caused the
Company tooltip lose color when displayed after an outline.
Not to diminish your efforts, but I've noticed that the fix for each
display problem I've reported lately involved move added lines than
removed ones. Which looks like adding more special cases. That's worrying.
