I followed http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html
to define an outline numbering scheme. For each additional outline
level, I added 0.12" of extra indentation for the text of the
heading. The tabstop settings are properly updated in each Heading
style, but the hanging indents is not. I manually modified the
hanging indents to match the tab settings. Is there a more
intelligent way to have the hanging indents update automagically?

When you apply outline numbering to paragraph styles, the indents and tabs
must be set in the Numbering dialog, not in the Paragraph dialog.

I did that. I chose a Heading 1 paragraph, modified the style, and
from there, chose to Format->Numbering. In the Bullets and Numbering
panel, I chose the Outline Numbered tab, and as per the website, did
not choose a different pattern from the one that was already
selected. I chose the Customize the selected pattern, which yielded a
Customize Outline Numbered List dialogue box. I made sure the More
details were shown, and...oh, wait a minute. I missed Shauna Kelly's
section 2.4, specifically field#3. That might solve it. Thanks for
prompting me to take a 2nd look.

Note that if you were using Word2007, you'd have to have the cursor in
the _first_ Heading 1 paragraph. (But since you have "Format >
Numbering," you're not. In 2007 it would be "Home" (> Paragraph) >
Numbering.")

Indeed, it pays to take a second (and a third) look at that article. :-)
