If you use the nowbrowse option in either mount or hdiutil, it hides
them from the finder. It also hides them from things such as open or
save dialogs, but you can still access them with filesystem APIs.
You have to plan to do this before the volume is mounted. To my
knowledge, there is no way to do this after a volume has been mounted.
