I confirm that behaviour too on spatial window...

Preference option always checked.
Touch something~ in a directory where the menu option IS NOT set (no hidden files). Then I set the option (Ctrl+H): all the files beggining with dot are showing, those ending in tilde aren't. If I leave set the menu option and close the nautilus window. Open it again, both .files and files~ show up. Unset the menu option, .files dissapear, files~ still there.

So, looks like for showing or not files~ we depend on the menu setting when we oppened the window, and once it is open, we are unresponsive to the preference changing.
