Research direction
Reproduce this in the Symbols sidebar with Binary Ninja 4.1 dev, following the numbered folder, filter, and selection steps, and note when closed folders reopen. The payload names no source file or test; trace the Symbols view's folder and filter behavior, with done meaning explicitly closed folders remain closed after creating a selection.
