Well, you have a point here and I already gave it to you (if you please
read again the text above). Though it's wrong that it isn't published at
all. Admittedly the publication isn't where the average user would look
for it, but calling it "hiding information" is an exaggeration. BTW: in
OOo2.2 this will be explained in the online help.

I don't consider missing information as a permission or even an excuse
for rude behavior. YMMV.
