Hmm, to realize it, we need to save the state somewhere. Some IDEs automatically create a hidden setting file at the directory for such a purpose; however, by CotEditor, I'd like to prevent this approach to avoid making the user's storage dirty. So let me reject this request (at least, at the moment).
