I think this flag was used so that certain channels could be incorporated into the user layout but not show up by default. TransientUserLayoutManagerWrapper came along around 2.3 or so (?) with a better behavior fir instantiating channels on the fly. So in early days User Preferences and channel manager were lurking on the layout in hidden folders. TransientUserLayoutManagerWrapper appears to have been one of SCT's contributions.

Could anyone enlighten me as to what the "hidden" field in the UP_LAYOUT_STRUCT table is used for? It does indeed seem to make tabs hidden, but I'm not really sure what the intended use case is.

Thanks,
