It would wonderful to add a Hidden Password Group Capability where the user can hide/unhide some of the available password groups/Subgroups by providing a password (View->Unhide Password Groups)

At creation of the Password Group/Subgroup a checkbox can be added to the "Add Group" dialog with the label "Hidden" if checked the group/subgroup won't show unless the appropriate password provided (Maybe the Master Password can be used in this case).

    How would you know there are hidden groups?
    Are you allowed to search hidden groups?
    Using the master password is not possible, unless you want to decrease security by keeping a copy of this password in the database.
    You could just use a separate database.

    cheers, Paul

    Q1:"How would you know there are hidden groups?"

    A1: The owner of the DB would know if he made a Hidden group or not wouldn't he?

    Q2:"Are you allowed to search hidden groups?"

    A2: If the user set the option to show Hidden groups, why Not it should act as ordinary groups

    Q3:""Using the master password is not possible, unless you want to decrease
    security by keeping a copy of this password in the database."

    A3: Fine, let the user set a new password for the Hidden groups. Or he can enable "Hidden Groups" in the Option ->restart KP->Re-Authenticate himself in order to be able to see the Hidden Groups (Like the "Disable Unsafe Operations" in the option).
