dolphin would implement support for .hidden files ala the newest gnome release and OS X.
In nautilus (gnome file manager), one can create a file in any directory called ".hidden". The syntax of that file is simply a list of folders and files you wish to not be displayed on the desktop or within the file manager.
Apple uses this to hide the disk volume folders from the Finder. Since I'm unable to move the evolution datastore, I would love to be able to at least HIDE it from my desktop view.
.hidden file would be a freedesktop feature for all file manager, t's very important for uniformity feature in kde and xfce (kubuntu and xubuntu respectively)
ok, thanks
