It would be better to define a face `hl-line' than to have option `hl-line-face', whose value must be an existing face. It's easier for users to tweak a face definition than it is for them to find an appropriate face ready-made, especially for something like this, which is fairly intrusive. To get something else, they are obliged to define a face themselves, which requires knowledge of Lisp.
