Unfortunately, it is not trivial to restore just the hide/show state (you can hide subfile content, too). It's hard to synchronize this state with all changes (e.g. changing line numbers, colours, coordinates, matrices). It looks so easy if you do a selection, click hide and the selection stays hidden. Even if you do a modification in the 3D editor.
To my regret, it is really complex to implement a multi level "hide/show" stack. Chances are high, that I will never going to implement this.
