Funny thing is, I pretty much remember seeing this feature working on KDE 3.5.6 under Kubuntu. When I upgraded to 3.5.8, it vanished. Why, I have no idea.
I personally like to hide the uglyness of the unix file system. .hidden is perfect in that regard because we can disable it permanently by deleting the file, or temporarily by enabling an option in the file browser (aka Konqueror) to see hidden files.
Gtk applications, even when running under KDE, still show support for this, so why does KDE wish to fall behind GNOME by not implementing a feature that it had actually implemented BEFORE? Makes no sense to me.
Also, isn't .hidden a proposal from freedesktop.org?
