Mickey,

hs-minor-mode also does this.

I find these bindings more comfortable than the defaults

(add-hook 'hs-minor-mode-hook '(lambda ()
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control h)] 
'hs-hide-block)
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control s)] 
'hs-show-block)
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control meta h)] 
'hs-hide-all)
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control meta s)] 
'hs-show-all)
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control l)] 
'hs-hide-level)
(define-key hs-minor-mode-map [(control c) (control \') (control c)] 
'hs-toggle-hiding)
))


It will place ellipsises after each folded block.

You can expand the block by right clicking on the ellipsis,
although I agree that a [+] icon would be more intuitive.
