It would make the display much easier to read and having unused send faders go to zero makes it instantly clear which sends are in use, rather than having them side by side with active tracks.
Yup, that's fair, thou hast assigned a certain number of slots for Sends display (e.g. 1-4, 1-8, etc.) and thou shalt get them

The problem doesn't occur when switching back to the main Zone, because the surface seems to receive a complete reset before the zone is loaded. That does produce a bit of a delay, but you know exactly where you are with it.

Could we have some kind of 'null' parameter so that unused controls don't have to be inactive but at the same time can overwrite the Zone?
That's already there -- NoAction is what you need to prevent "bleed through":

Code:
Zone aZone
        someButtonThatITookOverWhilstInThisZone Reaper 1234
        someButtonThatHasAnActionOnTheUnderlyingZoneThatIWantToHide NoAction
ZoneEnd
