 Replying to [comment:6 scribu]:

 Correct, but it doesn't make sense to show a pointer at a hidden element.
 Look at it from an user perspective, seeing pointers where the element is
 hidden, doesn't make sense. I agree that it isn't easy to fix and not a
 lot of users will have to face it, but problem lies in the base of the way
 pointers work.
