Right, but if extent B is invisible, are you saying that you want both
of extent B's glyphs to be visible? Or, are you just saying that
extent B's glyphs should be visible iff extent B is visible?
The latter, even if extent B borders on an extent which is invisible
(but has no glyphs).
i.e. glyph visibility shouldn't depend upon the visibility of extents
that don't overlap with the glyphs. (Sounds a bit more obvious said that
way. ;} )
