Comment(by ryan):

 Hidden inputs are different than hidden labels.  It makes no sense to me
 to ignore a hidden label for a visible input, but I digress.  We had a
 blind user who used to work at Freedom Scientific look over these not so
 long ago and all was deemed fine.  We'll go with whatever the current
 thinking is though.

 We can certainly look over all hidden labels and determine if they need to
 be visible to all. Just change the styling on the hidden class and see how
 horrid things look. I suspect it will be inaccessibly ugly. :-)
