Description Andrey Botalov 2014-03-27 22:20:58 UTC 
IMHO it's not 100% clear what "element is hidden" means. IMO "element is hidden" may mean different things:

* "element has hidden property set to true". I think that's what you mean

* element is not visible

So I think it should be clarified.

However, I'm not sure how it should worded:
"element has hidden attribute set"
"element's hidden attribute is not null"
"element has hidden IDL attribute set to true"
"element has hidden property set to true"
"element has hidden Javascript property set to true"
