The outline (tree pane). It doesn't seem like a good idea to auto collapse 
all the nodes in the outline by default after a cfa/cff/cfm/cffm, 
destroying the visual state of the outline. As you would say, that behavior 
is automagic (unexpected). This should be an option that should have to be 
turned on, but be off by default. It would be no different than auto 
hoisting the root of the cloned nodes after a cfa/cff/cfm/cffm, which I 
think creates even greater focus without destroying the state of the 
outline. And would like to see that as an option too after a 
cfa/cff/cfm/cffm.

Additionally would there be a barrier to remembering if a clone is inside a 
hoisted node or not so that when you switched between a clone inside a 
hoist to a clone outside a hoist it would return to the hoisted view when 
you switched back again?

I have never investigated chapters, I shall do so and see if they help. If 
there are restrictions on them that you think inhibit their usefulness then 
those should probably be removed.
