If something were perfectly hidden, nothing and nobody would see it, and therefore no-one would know if it existed or not. so it's not truly hidden, indeed. the point made by myself and others was about data that is only visible to a subset community which does not include the author, or support their direct interests (e.g. like header tags help search engines). -- David Singer Multimedia Standards, Apple Inc.
