The only way I see is to set this desired level as a property for
the entries, then to let your defun act depending on this property.
See the Org manual (2.3 Visibility cycling):
Furthermore, any entries with a 'VISIBILITY' property (*note
Properties
and Columns::) will get their visibility adapted accordingly. Allowed
values for this property are 'folded', 'children', 'content', and
'all'.
'C-u C-u <TAB>' ('org-set-startup-visibility') Switch back to the
startup visibility of the buffer, i.e., whatever is requested by
startup options and 'VISIBILITY' properties in individual entries.

Yes.. but I'm not sure I can think of a solution, manipulating
visibility states is a bit daunting.
