I seem to remember MK being open late multiple nights each week not just on Saturday. 1am, 2am closing a were not unusual. Now, for August 2015 MK closes at 10pm every night.

Is MK open later than that regularly but unadvertised?

I enjoy the parks at night in the Summer - 10pm just isn't late.
 
Those aren't the final hours. They're just the "default". Disney always revises and lengthens their hours as they get closer to the actual month and can get a better sense of the projected crowds.

For example, Disney made a whole bunch of changes to their May operating hours, just a couple weeks ago. You can see them here, at EasyWDW:

August adjustments are still several months away.
 
That's good to know that they regularly lengthen the park hours. The only drawback is that I like to make dinner reservations close (or in) a park that is open late that night. Since the updated scheduled comes out much later than the 180 day reservation timeframe, that makes planning difficult.
 

I enjoy the parks at night. But wish they had a little more lighting, it sure is dark.
 
If they've already made May changes does that mean April hours are pretty well set?

Every night Wishes is at 10 and the park closes at 11. My favorite times are between those two things!

I doubt it. I just checked posts on easywdw about changes for last April, and they were still making them in mid-March:

Not really. They will sometimes extend park hours on that very day.
