One could argue that the sitetree is just a view of the data, and the
visibility is a property of the view, not of the data itself. But I
don't know...

Our experience with the jcr sitetree (each sitetree node is represented
by a jcr node with properties) showed that the performance could be a
problem. The generation of navigation elements (e.g. the menu) was much
slower than with the in-memory dom sitetree. But it also depends on the
number of nodes.
