I think we call all sleep safely tonight, knowing that the word 
"visibility" - when discussed in terms of private, package, public, and 
protected attributes - is both oft-used and perfectly valid terminology.

Don't know what documentation you might be referring to, Thomas -- but 
hopefully this particular report refers to something sufficiently 
rudimentary that it will be correctly understood? I do hope so.
