I have never used that distinction for anything. It is implicit in the 
object id anyway - any node that is less than the maximum id has existed 
at some point in time because we have auto increments ;-) and any node 
with a higher id that the maximum has never existed.

So as far as I am concerned, out with the invisible objects in the 
current tables (saves us another column as well). But that would 
probably be a big change that would require a lot of re-testing... maybe 
wait until 0.7 ;-)

Bye
Frederik
