Flipper: Discussion: Hide one section is opened on next network call again

[WarrenFaith]

Sorry, I failed to find a better formed title but I suggest the following improvement:

I have a very long authentication bearer in every request I make to our backend. So when I am investigating a lot of network requests, I always have to scroll down to see the request and the response because the bearer takes close to the complete height of the sidebar.

I have two suggestion which would ease my usage of Flipper a lot:

1. use marquee to "cut" long headers (I can copy the value easily with the already existing context menu)
2. if I collapse the "Request Headers" section, keep it collapsed when I switch to another network request. Currently the section is expanded again making me scroll again and again and again whenever I switch to another network request.

Keep it up!

@WarrenFaith I like 2, might be useful to make status (open/closed) of all the sections persist.

@mweststrate Could you label this as network plugin

[mweststrate]

For remembering the panel state; we plan to address this at the component library level as it applies to many plugins.

[bizzguy]

@mweststrate I was thinking of working on this. Do you think that the time-frame for the component level change is such that it is not worth making a temporary fix?

[bizzguy]

@mweststrate Network plugin already has a fix which persists the selection of "Body" in the "Options" section, so just expanding that would be a fairly quick fix.

I think ~2 weeks

@mweststrate That's pretty soon - sounds like I should find something else to work on :)

[mweststrate]

Implemented, should be part of the next release or the one after that.

Verified that it is working with version 0.88.0
