I would definately say this is a bug in the mind that thought this up,
even an experienced user can get very confused by this and if the
.hidden file contains directories that are to be hidden, it will break
whenever the FHS (filesystem hierarchy standard) changes again, unless
the .hidden file is updated, which it won't be if the user changed it.

I'd advise to file a bugreport!
