In Oil, with the default behavior (show_hidden = false) when editing a hidden file, and then opening oil, the hidden file does not show up in the oil buffer. It might make sense for the file to be visible in the Oil buffer.
Provide background
A hidden file is opened for editing. When Oil is then opened, the hidden file does not show up in the list. This behavior can be slightly confusing.
What is the significance of this feature?
nice to have
Additional details
Not sure if it makes more sense to show all hidden files in this case or just the hidden file(s) that is currently being edited (or hidden files in buffers).
