To answer your question, the problem only occurred on initial load. I was originally using setVisibility(false) and went to setting the visibility directly after I identified a problem. However, hold off on this until I can provide a simplified test case. My first attempt to create one failed to reproduce the problem. This has me requestioning my assumptions.

I have a Layer that renders feature data from a richly populated datastore. The problem is that at large scale, a Get Image operation is expensive but I can't seem to prevent the Get Image operation from occurring. In an attempt to avoid the problem, I set {visibility: false} in the options when I instantiate the layer object, but this had no effect. I have confirmed that the parameter has made its way to div.style.display = "none". However, I see that Firefox is still attempting to load the image. This is bad. (FWIW, this layer extends Grid, but this problem would presumably occur on any layer type.)

What happens if you do setVisibility(false); instead of setting the
visibility yourself?

Does it continue to load as you change zooms more than once?
It's possible this is part of an already-reported bug, or possibly a new
bug report I'm not yet aware of.
