Comment #9 on issue 2717 by [email protected]: Patch: Implement \hide as a shorthand for \tweak #'stencil ##f
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2717

Putting this back to review. Most commands like \hideNotes or so are overrides, and there would be some incentive to have \hide be consistent with _that_, namely use
\new Voice \with { \hide StringNumber } { c\3 }
and instead use the macro name \hidden for this patch's functionality, one-time stencil settings, like
\hidden Accidental cis-\hidden\3

There is some slight grammatical advantage to using \hide for the override as well: \once\hide makes grammatical sense, \once\hidden not so much. On the other hand, the tweaks will likely occur more often, and \hidden is more work to type.

Discuss.
