Pardon, I didn't understand. The share is going to show up even if all
file inside are hidden (as a empty share shows up unless you mark it
with hidden = true).

As far as I understand, "hide unreadable" protect the windows users from
seeing files in Windows Explorer they are not meant to know about.

So: it is a option about files, not about shares.

Please accept in advance my apologies if I didn't understand,
