to make a hider optional on such would require more coding, but if such is written, then yes it would be possible.
It all depends on how much work Mahz wants to put into it and whether his code cooperates.

We see several options that some might desire to have for the zeroth posts:
[list][*]Only on page 1
[*]Visible on page 1, hidden on all others
[*]Visible on all pages[/list]

And of course some would probably desire this to be something that can be adjusted on a per-tab basis.
