See PHI1548, which would like "Collapse File" to be sticky across reloads. There's some vague philosophical peril here because it pushes us toward file-by-file review, but I'm not overly concerned about that for now. Previously, see T8909, etc.
Generally, most of the "View Options" (highlighting, encoding, unified, etc) would benefit from being sticky across reloads, and the value increases as more options are introduced, as with the abstract block engine stuff recently.
This menu would also probably benefit from a reorganization pass and some dividers, since it has accumulated a lot of options but doesn't have very much structure.
See also PHI1660.

**Errata**
- This data should have a GC on it.
- The "View Options" menu should be reorganized.
- The "View Options" menu should show keystrokes.
- Maybe swap "View Options" entirely for a more compact "Hidden Change / Show Change" state?
- See PHI1706. "View in Diffusion" should have a keystroke.
- See PHI1706 for "View Directory in Diffusion" for paths that have a parent.
- Does the "hidden" logic actually work on updates (reveal-on-update)? Maybe put it in the UI.
