Indeed I will add this to doc.

Sure, a data field in biblio whould be really great.
Maybe biblio.opac_hidden.

Indeed the complexity is hard with this feature.
We should ask who uses it.

With this script actually you can not manually hide on purpose a biblio record.
I was thinking we could define a special value for the OPACSuppress field, like
"2".
Value "1" would be used to manually hide biblio record.
