I don't believe that's the case, Graham. What I do see is that a document
seems to inherit the display setting of the window it is opened in. For
example, I may have NPC displayed in one document and hide them in another.
If I close the second document and open or create a new one, it will (or at
least may, depending on how I open it) have NPC hidden even though they are
still displayed in the first document.
