A thought about hidden elements

Questions

@emmanuel I’m a little concerned that people may be mistakenly using visibility to hide confidential information, not knowing that the information is still there behind the scenes, just hidden by a display:none declaration.

I know if I hadn’t known to check, I probably would be in my project. Is there possibly a way to explain/demonstrate that this a hidden item is there just… hidden?

We’ve always said that data security is done through privacy rules, hiding elements is really about hiding them from the page.
