Extend use of oslc:hidden to suggest that entire shapes be hidden from the UI

      Add oslc:hidden to the shape for oslc:ResourceShape, with an occurrence of zero-or-one, and extend the definition of oslc:hidden, replacing the current (poorly worded)

      "A hint that indicates that property MAY be hidden when presented in a user interface."

      to the more general:

      "A hint that indicates that the associated entity MAY be hidden when presented in a user interface."

      The predicate oslc:hidden is currently used within oslc:PropertyDefinition resources to mark a given property of a shape as something to be hidden from the normal UI.

      There is no currently well-defined way to suggest that an entire shape (or classes using that shape) be hidden from a UI. Such a property would be useful for report builders, to hide classes that are a supporting part of the representation of some top-level type and not intended for primary querying.
