The general rule in the CamelCaseWorld is to change the case on word boundaries.
In this sense I also think that unhideNotes should be unhideNotes.
Also for a user syntactic keywords and variables are indistinguishable.
(And not just for users, as if I remember well \override is a music function in markup mode and a keyword in note mode)

This suggests that the command is derived from "hideNotes":
"un" + "hideNotes" = "unHideNotes"

That logic isn't applied in the case of \set and \unset. That's why I am (and
maybe also others are) always confused.

But then \set and \unset are so-called keywords, like eg. \lyricsto,
\drummode,
etc, and these are not capitalized, whereas \hideNotes and
\unHideNotes are
variables (where capitilization applies).  So this is consistent.
