Hidden accounts should be hidden everywhere
Hidden accounts should be hidden from the account drop-down list in the transaction list/editor as well as in the account list

Whoops! Sorry! Just found that I can show the "placeholder" attribute in a column in the accounts screen. And, even better, I can change the attribute just by clicking on the indicator. Great! Thanks, GNU
Now, for a column for the "hidden" attrribute

PS. On balance, it's still preferable to have old dormant accounts tagged as placeholders to stop them coming up in the pop-up list on the transactions screen

Setting the account as a placeholder seems OK at first. If it's an account to which you no longer want to add transactions, then it might as well be a placeholder. However, if you then want to view the transactions in that account, you have to first remove its placeholder status. A bit fiddly, a bit of a pain - but then perhaps I'm just being picky.
On the same note, it would be great to have an indicator on the accounts screen, say in an additional column, that shows if an account is placeholder, or hidden - rather than having to open the account for editing to see its status

Setting the account also as a Placeholder account will achieve this.
