Within the list dialog open if you press "hide" the text between the list
items of the current list will disappear. If your cursor is in the overall
heading list, then everything but the headings will dissappear. If you ina
sublist of the headings then just the text between items in the
subheadings will disappear.

Oh right. I'll need to invent another property to distinguish this type of
hidden from other sorts of hidden. Luckily Tomas has encapsulated all the
hidden text code within isHidden() functions so it should not be too hard
to resue all his code.
