visible attribute for wibox.widget objects in Awesome 3.5

[Jacco]

Hi,

Today I ported my configuration to 3.5. I really like the changes, but I
am missing a certain feature. Previously I could turn the visibility of
a widget object on or off.

example = widget({ type = "imagebox" })
example.visible = false

I have yet to find an equivalent. I turn the visibility of widgets on
and off based on certain events, ie hide all mpd controls except play if
mpd isn't playing or don't show up/down rates of network interfaces that
aren't connect, this prevents my wiboxes from cluttering with pointless
information.

Short story: how to do this with wibox.widget objects? Specifically
wibox.widget.imagebox and wibox.widget.textbox.

Thanks for you help.

Regards,

Jacco
