Not really a bug, but a missing feature. (Present in the devel branch.)

You'll need restructure your widgets instead of hiding one. 

(Keep an extra reference to the notebooks with gtk_object_ref() so the
don't get destroyed when you remove them, remove them from the paned,
add the notebook you want back.)
