Yes, I did not meant to say that the wish was fully implemented. You can only 
set the default expansion level (Settings->Configure Kile).

It would be possible I guess, but not so easy considering how the structure 
view is built internally. Since this part of the code is subject to change 
anyway, I will give it an extra thought.
