"Info for" is not a Finder property, and "visible" is not a Finder
property (or rather, is not a file or item property accessible from the
Finder). Therefore, the Finder does not know how to handle "set
invisible," nor can it pass it to standard additions because "visible"
is part of the "info for" property, and Finder doesn't know anything
about that.
