Thanks Kohsuke
This is a very useful tag, for passing generated values back and forth
from the plugin.
The hidden tag allows it to be hidden from the user.

I believe this is fixed now, but I don't think this tag makes sense, as
a hidden textbox really doesn't need any of the bells & whistles of the
