Allowing only to hide whole folders is too restrictive in my opinion. I often
have a few embarrassing pictures among my normal ones. I would not want to move
them in separate folders for this sole purpose.

For me the ideal way to handle private images would be a new tab in the config
dialog, which allows me to specify certain tags and folders to be hidden by
default. Images in such folders or tagged by such tags would be hidden even
when searching for certain dates or tags for example. It would appear as if I
deleted these folders, tags and all images associated with them.
Allowing to hide tags and folders instead of tagging images as hidden provides
greater flexibility. I could have the tag "embarrassing" on the hidden list
which is fine most of the time, but I could quickly add the tag "nude art" to
the list if someone particularly sensitive comes over...

Password protection to show private images would be useful against guys like
me, I am always tempted by the unprotected "hidden" tag of Photoshop Elements
on a friends computer :-) Of course I always could start searching through his
image folders but it's by far not as convenient as getting all interesting
pictures with one click :-)
