Hide files and folders within application bundles
Definitely do NOT do this if you want security. Anyone looking for your files is not going to browse aimlessly or use the Finder's find command - they're heading straight for the terminal and using 'find / -name xxx".

This is not meant to be an end-all security trick, just a way to hide things from being easily navigated too with a mouse.
