You can still see it with: lvs -a

I'll have to revisit why I made it hidden (aside from the fact that the
associated DM device is also hidden).  There was some subtle reason that
had to do with the refactoring of associations when I eliminated the
distinct ->shared_snapshot pointer (otherwise the vg_validate() method
would fail).

OK, I can have a look but some of my changes also made it so that
info-by-uuid based multisnapshot cleanup actually works (needed for lvm2
>= 2.02.62).
