To answer my own question ... so for the next poor schmuck who doesn't
know any Javascript ...

Using firebug and the wonderful
http://jsbeautifier.org/
to unminimize javascripts so that you can actually use Firebug to track
through the code ... one discovers that the hide is going to

hide: function () {
if (!arguments[0] || (arguments[0].constructor == Number ||
...
},

The answer is that hide:function can take an arbitrary number of
arguments. The value of the arguments is stored an array as a local
variable called "arguments"

If anyone can point me to the reference that shows what the
"hide:function" syntax is defined, I would be grateful.
