Good point!  Especially if Chapter Numbering becomes Heading Numbering.
I would support your suggestion to change "Outline" to "Headings"

Reasons:  
  1. Headings would accurately identify that TOC is created from Headings.
  2. Not trying to remove "headings" (per se), just "heading level" (which has
no meaning).
  3. As noted in bug 152605, comment 19, "outline" can be confusing.
  4. "Outline level" is actually only indirectly relevant.  As confirmed in bug
153499, comment 11, outline levels are mapped 1-1 to index levels. 

(That could be an argument for keeping the "Outline" label -- but that would
presuppose that users understand the outline level concept.  The
counterargument is that beginners will presumably assume that "Headings" are
connected to the Heading N PS, without having to know anything about index
levels and outline levels.)

> the evaluation up to what outline level
> the ToC is generated applies to both headings and indexes. 
Actually, I understand now that the OP is wrong.  The word "index" could/should
be added in front of "level", not "outline".  I am neutral about whether to add
"index" or not.  Can see good arguments for both sides.

Bottom line:
  1. proposed change a. is withdrawn.
  2. your choice about whether to add "index" in front of "level" (change b.).
  3. strong suggestion to change "Outline" to "Headings"  (will change bug
summary)
