People on en.wikipedia.org constantly invent new applications of the display:none CSS client side hiding hack.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ACommon.css&diff=82... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ALinkshere&diff=828... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3APagemovedtext&diff...

As we know, this has some well known drawbacks as described at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:HiddenStructure (which Brion also advised against).

It was also Graham (see also his previous thread) who also advised against using this.

Occasionally, people revert warred hiddenStructure (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ACommon.css&diff=81...) back into templates with the argument that blind users are a minority.

Suggestions on how to deal with this situation are welcome.

I for one would love to simply have CSS display:none and speak:none filtered out by MediaWiki software (possibly with a config parameter per site installation).
