Description David Burns :automatedtester 2013-07-12 11:30:25 UTC 
In html5 there is a new hidden attribute[1] that does not render in the page. We need to handle this in our getText and visibility algorithm

Comment 1 David Burns :automatedtester 2013-09-20 19:41:51 UTC 
we already handle this with display:none so closing
