Peter pointed out to me that the way the beta uses of showing hidden attachments is not very good. If there are any hidden attachments, an extra row is added to the attachments table that lets you see the attachments. If there are only hidden attachments, you get a rather silly looking table with a link to see all the attachments.

The alternative I'm going for is:

• Only non hidden attachments are show on view
• Whe you click attach, you see all attachments.

This will be done by including different forms of the %META{"attachments"}% variable i.e.

In view.tmpl	%META{"attachments"}%
In attach.tmpl	%META{"attachments" all="on"}%

What is a HiddenAttachment for? (i.e. does it have semantics beyond not shown at the bottom of the page topic?)
