<p>The <a href="http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/56669/should-hidden-features-of-x-be-removed-closed-locked">m.SO question</a> posted by Mark is from July of last year; in October of last year, a number of SO's "hidden features" questions were closed and locked - and even as recently as a week ago, the <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/101268/hidden-features-of-python">one for Python</a> was (re)closed.</p>

<p>The majority of their "big" <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/hidden-features?sort=faq">hidden features questions</a> seem to be closed and/or locked, but some are not; it doesn't seem to be quite a settled debate.</p>

<p>But, hey: we're not Stack Overflow, and I think we can make this one idiosyncrasy that we choose not to inherit.</p>
