When I wrote about the button I mean that it should work similar to quick
filters in Calc and Excel. You _filter_ the levels which should be shown.

(It should be said that the most appropriate icon in this case will be the
funnel. But it is already in use.)

Initially, when I proposed this idea, I mean that it should work for all
headings in Navigator at once.

The advantage of context menu is that it is better suited for individual
heading. I.e. consider the following document:

```
[-] Headings
  [-] Foo
        Aaa
        Bbb
        Ccc
  [-] Bar
        Ddd
        Eee
        Fff
```

* If you want to expand _all_ headings (there will be no difference with
proposed button solution) - you should call this context menu from "Headings"
item.

* If you want to expand only "Foo" heading - you should call context menu from
"Foo". 

So, the context menu idea looks more flexible.
