There is no need to submit a new patch: the 'hide' keyword will not
be accepted.  (I'm thinking of implementing something different; not
a new keyword, just a changed behavior.)

Also, you didn't answer my question:

>> Which functions would be helpful for you to show in the help lines?
>> In other words: what 'hide' lines have you put in your .nanorc?

I asked that because probably the example you would give would lead
to help items getting unpaired in some menu, which would look ugly.
The user would have to fiddle a lot to get things just right, if it
is at all possible.  That is not worth the trouble.
