If any, they should not go to refuse stockpile. This got changed recently: now corpses of all sentient people go into corpse stockpile.

I am not sure how are various levels of visitors treated during burying (common visitors / long-term-residing ones / citizined visitors).

Long-term ones are assigned to coffins -- common visitors do not appear to be.

This may then work as intended.

Few of my visitors vent insane, running around until they die. Nobody bury them. I think coffins should have "Allow burying of visitors" option.

Burial is for fortress members (I'm not sure if that also extends to members of the own civ). The bodies of everyone else will stay in the corpse stockpile until they rot away (which will take a huge amount of time, give that it doesn't have any accelerated decay, and bones take a long time to decay).
Thus, you typically have to dispose of those corpses in another way (trash compactor [i.e. atom smasher], into magma, or just into a deep hole).

Suggestions should be posted in the suggestions forum, not in bug reports where they probably won't be remembered.
