Just an idea.
That might work… But doesn’t it seem to you (as it does to me) that this is an awful lot of work to simply force visibility of a grob? I would rather have a new property added to grob-interface, say #’force-visibility (unset or ##f by defaul), which if ##t would override all other commands and properties (e.g., a previous \hide or #’break-visibility setting or #’stencil hack) and simply force the grob to appear. A shortcut could be \show or \force, which would be \override Grob.force-visibility = ##t. Thoughts?
