A button "Unhide" could be added to reveal the hidden elements.

Yes, that's as intended.

At this moment, only single nodes can be hidden, that's intended. I see
no problems making it propagating, it would make it easier to hide
big parts without anyone noticing. I'm not sure we want to encourage that.

Well, the event which added the "hidden" tag is still visible in the timeline,
so you can always get the SHA1 from there.
Thanks for your feedback! I'll try to add a "Unhide" button to the timeline,
it looks like that will make operating the "hidden" tag more clear.
