This is OK (tho a bit inefficient) but things like
"^;;[;]+\\{3\\} \\(.*\\)"
or
"^;;[;]+\\{8,\\} \\(.*\\)"
are problematic because we use a backtracking regexp-matcher, so when
matching ";;;;;" against "[;]+\\{4\\}", it may consider 4 different ways
to match it. For ";;;;;;" that are 4+6=10 ways to match it.
For ";;;;;;;" I already prefer not to count them and for 40 semi-colons
the number of different ways to match it is staggering.

Just match outline-regexp and then call outline-level to find the
level number.
