Not really.

I'm not sure about this, but it would be consistent with the way
topics pick up state now (a folded topic will appear folded in the
next session, for example).

Yes, exactly.  The ability to do this would make the group visibility
parameter irrelevant for me, since I only need it for doing M-g on
specific groups.
