Ignore is not the same as "display: none". The contents of form
elements that are "ignored" are not submitted, and scripting that is
"ignored" is not executed. The tag if for both presentational AND
functional suppression. It also has a semantic meaning, which is that
the contents should be ignored. In fact, the UA could theoretically
render the contents of an <ignore> element as inactive rather than
invisible.
