implement hidden mechanism about dokuwiki-plugin-struct

[stvoigt]

In the most cases I used hidden just for storing the current language (%trans%) and used it for filtering. Sometimes I used hidden also for storing the date when the data set was created for sorting (newest entry first). I am telling this more for keeping in mind these usefull mechanisms. Maybe you have ideas how to solve these sorting/filtering mechanisms based on placeholders (like %trans%)... Or would it be possible to prefil these hidden type with placeholders automatically filled when a scheme is connected with a page?

Real world examples like these are extremely helpful. Thank you.

why not add options to the field config?

• visible in view (yes/no) - should field be visible in normale page view?
• visible in edit (yes//no) - should field be visible in field editor?

having these two option you can

• prefill form fields with bureaucracy and prehibit changes lateron
• enable fields in editor, without bothering watching the normal page view
