--- Comment #13 from Rainer Bielefeld

g1) Nobody will think that the text in the index will flash because the 
   related field flashes. So of course if the the "Hidden" property style 
   is a quite normal Font Effect it should be expected that it has no
   influence to the appearance in indexes.
g2) But "Hidden" is different from "Relief" or similar. So "Hidden" Style
    for example will prevent the string from being found. String with that
    property does not need room in the text flow
(g) So "Hidden" is a very special "Font Effect", may be even something
different.
    Some "real life" examples where the effect can be used might help to
    decide whether 
g3) the assignment as a "Font effect" is misleading 
      or whether 
(g4) "Hidden" should should be ignored for Index entries.

Currently I can better imagine applications where I want to hide "Hidden"
paragraphs completely, although I never used that feature.

"Issue 49960 - Hidden sections also counted in outline numbering" is concerning
something very different, but at least underpins a policy "hidden should mean
really completely hidden.

"Issue 111155 Comment 5 - Fields formatted as hidden text show in TOC/indexes":
comment underpins that we do not have a bug here.

"Issue 27377  - Character formatting not retained in entries of TOC, table
lists, etc": I need to find though all those arguments, I doubt that CONFIRMED
is appropriate for that general summary.

I will try to find some more info in ODF specifications later.

@hadouma:
Is there a "real life" application where the current behavior causes problems?
