Hmmmm... I intentionally left it visible tho.  The only reason we gate
its visibility is avoid disturbing userland which doesn't know about
and won't use the unified hierarchy.  If the userland starts making
use of it, there's no reason to hide it again especially as that's
consistent with how other hierarchies behave too - they keep showing
up if they have lingering refs.

Thanks.
