Hmm, so what about some people's ideas for experimental muds, where ones "position" is determined just like in a MMO? But, ok, point taken. As a rule, most clients currently don't handle "invisible" data. Some could, if there was a valid reason to do so. For example, opening a window to display the *complete* inventory for a shop, with scroll bars, would make sense. Some of that data wouldn't be immediately visible, some might even be invisible until needed, if you used a tab system to separate "types", as some games allow.
But again, from the perspective of what most muds *currently* do, they often don't even support the most reasonable things in "existing" protocols, or even entire protocols correctly.
