Please, let's leave .hidden files to distributors, advanced users and
sysadmins. Only advanced users would want to see this exposed in the user
interface, and if they really care, they could add a plugin or script to
handle it. Yes, it's a funky feature, but there's no need for it to be any
more than that.
