Michael,
We tried this and it was immediately shot down by the people higher up.
We only had it not broadcasting for 1 day. That takes a lot more
preparation than a couple of calls to the HD and the unchecking of a box
somewhere. Some people will scream wolf saying that the network is
down, when in reality they are not capable of properly configuring their
device, which is fine because it keeps us employed. Just remember that
you will get a nice amount of calls regarding this matter.

We're changing the SSID we've used in the past. In the past it was
Broadcasted.
We plan to Broadcast the "New" SSID, and non-broadcast the "Old" SSID.
All new setups, and any calls for help would change people to the "New"
SSID. The thought is to provide service for the old SSID, but not
encourage it's use.
Has anyone done this? I curious now, because of this email thread if
I'm asking for problems.
