Hidden User Text keys do not work

Rhino documentation says that SetDocumentUserText command can make hidden keys - if the keys have “.” (period) prefix, they are hidden. It seems that this feature does not work. If I make such “hidden” key, the key is not hidden because Rhino displays the “hidden” key and its “hidden” UserText as soon as I type GetDocumentUserText and hit Enter key.

Hello- these are hidden in the GUI. They still exist.

Command: SetDocumentUserText
Document text key: .ping
Document text: pong
Command: SetDocumentUserText
Document text key: oodles
Document text: noodles

This is obviously a bug. The panel does not show the hidden text, but typed GetDocumentUserText command shows it. (I use Rhino 8.8.)

That does appear to be a bug. Logged here
Thanks
