Too bad, I was hoping that I missed something ;o(
That would be really useful, no?

No, unfortunately that's not sufficient. Maybe I'm faking a href-selector
using the visibility property, though that could be getting quite a mess.
Thank you.

I wouldn't consider it so, but I'm not a huge CSS fan. ;)
