Ivan:
Hoho ... This bug also captures the "big problem" with filtering that I
meant to discuss with Hanz but never got around to it.

If we treat hidden frames as something a filter installs, the question
becomes which model has the reference set of identities

What?

A model is made up of things. These things have identities. THe
most basic identity is the object reference. The most common
user of this identity is the "current" state. So, should the "current
frame" the be frame before or after filtering? What happens to
"current" when yo don't have a filter and then you install a filter?

Another form of id is an index (frame # in this case). When we
say frame # <n>, do we mean the <n>th before filtering or after?
