Probably much the same as with

h1:hover { display:none; }

The specs are IMHO not the place to prevent authors from doing  
non-sensible stuff - if you want, you have plenty of means to completely  
destroy display with valid CSS.

Nevertheless I have some doubt about pseudo class :visible as well. The  
problem is that we still have no means of preventing sound-salads of  
simultaneously playing audio files, as you might have two elements with  
:visible that are visible at the same time...
