Aka this problem: _Narrowing is fine-grained but widening is not._

  Narrowing always narrows to the current region, which can be
  anywhere and have any size up to the buffer size. But command
  'widen' ('C-x n w') always restores the full buffer. There ca
  be many different narrowings (one at a time), but there is
  only one widening: the whole buffer.

One solution:
