--- Comment #19 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #18) > Why?

You are mixing two things: inserting and being visible. You are free to insert with hidden flag; insertion creates a *point* at which the field changes its value, and Eike's phrase means that having a variable definition not bound to a point in document doesn't make sense (but actually it makes, to manage the *initial* value). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
