Hi Ihor,

Not sure we need to reinterpret the settings; roughly they cover the
different options of what to do when you edit a hidden text: edit
anyways, throw an error, unfold but do nothing, unfold and do what you
wanted to do and the only thing I don't have an intuition about is the
smart option.

BTW, there are no issues when the folding core style is "overlays". So
why not follow what happens in that case, even formalize it into tests?

Best,
