Yes it is some work on documentation (but seems some doc work needs to be done anyway because it was forgotten when `HeapDumpGzipLevel` was introduced). 
And the current name is generic and does not mention the OOM case in the name itself, the current implementation would better match the name if it was `HeapDumpPathOnOom` or something like this.
