@Simon Hirscher: I am using up-to-date Ubuntu 11.10 and still have the
problem with the files located in the "."-folders - they are still
visible in the unity-files-lens. It is true that if the file is a hidden
file - it does not show in the Files & Folders in Ubuntu 11.10. But if
the file is located in a hidden directory, either directly in it or in a
subdirectory, it is still showing up in the Files & Folders in the Dash.
I don't think this is a normal behavior, since still the idea of the
hidden directory is broken - it's not hidden anymore if it's showing in
the Dash, no matter if it's hidden in Nautilus and the Terminal. Should
I report it as another bug or is it better to reopen the current one?

** Summary changed:

- Files lense should ignore hidden files
+ Files lense should ignore hidden files and folders

** Description changed:

  Install unity-place-files 0.5.46-0ubuntu5.1 from natty-proposed and
  restart your session
  
  1. get sure you already opened a file starting with "."
  2. make a search in the file lense which should match this file and ensure it 
doesn't appear
  
  I hid a file and opened it. Then I checked to see if it appeared on the
  Files Place and saw it on the "Recent" list. The "Downloads" list
  ignores it as it should.
  
- You hide files for a reason (to remove clutter ;P), this kills the
- purpose.

+ The same thing happens with files located in hidden directories.
