Title:
  Hidden files in the home folder are being displayed by default every
  time a new window is opened or the application relaunched.

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I open nautilus, a new window to the home folder, the hidden
  files get displayed by default even if their display is toggled off.
  Even though this is very minor issue, it is very distracting for the
  user to see all the hidden files every time he/she opens or launches a
  new window using nautilus. This is strictly a graphical issue.

  I am using Ubuntu 14.04. To reproduce the issue,

  - Open nautilus or launch a new window which displays the home folder.
  - You will find the hidden files being displayed by default.
  - Hide them using Ctrl+H and close that window.
  - Open the home folder again, and you can notice that these hidden files being displayed by default again.
