Hi Ross,

My thoughts are that

- if the various objects of a program are highly independent (a must
in good oo programming)
     a)  it is very dangerous to free an object from one part of the
program: others won't know it and may create exceptions by accessing a
no longer existing object and its methods
     b) so, I would definitely not free the object but have a way to
signal to other owners of reference of this object that it is no
longer visible / usable

So, I would also rather prefer your isVisible() proposal rather than
the current isHidden() because I share your idea that isVisible is not
at all  the contrary of isHidden()

regards
didier
