(In reply to Christian Lehmann from comment #2)

I might then had misunderstood you; and I am still puzzled about what you
perceive the possible enhancement here.

You described your findings as "I do this, and the row disappears; it's fine
that it's disappeared, but the option should be in a different place". But you
didn't suggest an example of where you see it fit better. That description made
me feel that you perceive the *main function* of the said function to hide
table rows. That is wrong, and it's just a side effect of a combination of
settings (row having no minimal or fixed height; no border padding; all its
cells having the only textual content with all characters having the said
hidden property). But given the comment 2, I now start to believe that you are
talking about something different: that the hidden property does not belong to
*Font* effects (while still belong to character properties)?

Then why all that dance with table? The question if this belongs to font
effects or different tab of character properties is unrelated to the behavior
of table rows with automatic heights.

Or do you mean something third? It would be nice if you not only state "this
shouldn't belong here", but also continue with "... but better e.g. here". That
would make your idea clearer.
