 Yeah, I can see the `.hidden` CSS rule being used by other themes here.

 If we make the change to the `hidden` CSS class to something else like
 `hidden-group`, we'll probably break sites that are already using this
 rule to style hidden groups in Groups loop.

 I think this is important to fix though.

 We could do what other people have done in the support thread and that is
 to use a `display` CSS override using `!important`.  This wouldn't break
 any sites, but I know @hnla will hate this option :)
