Perhaps this should be a standard feature
so that this variable could have a shorter and more natural name.

Well, whitespace.el has a similar feature:

;; lines tail. See EightyColumnRule (EmacsWiki).
(defcustom whitespace-line-column 80
"*Specify column beyond which the line is highlighted.
Used when `whitespace-style' includes `lines' or `lines-tail'."
:type '(integer :tag "Line Length")
:group 'whitespace)

Yes, that would be me, as well. I didn't know it had been implemented.
highlight-80+ is a materialization of the same idea, so it's probably
identical, give or take a few options.

Can you please document this at least in etc/NEWS? Otherwise it's very
hard to guess that such a feature would be found in whitespace.el ...

You're right! I had not much time to do it, but I'll put the whitespace.el
main features in etc/NEWS.
