Ahhh, do you know, I'd given my advice thinking that this was exactly what 
you wanted. :-)

What you really want to do, evidently, is to _completely_ suppress the 
inline. In which case, you probably want to check for the property at layout 
time, and do a no-op if 'hidden' is set, so no layout ever happens. That is, 
return a Status.OK right away.
