Description
Students can view the grading for hidden assignments. This can be extremely harmful from a pedagogical way, since many times teachers want a hidden place to keep their own thoughts about a student's work, a different place from the "official" grading presented to the student. A way to do this is adding a hidden assignment that can be used for that purpose.
First I supposed there could be something wrong with a capability, but I could temporarily solve it by changing line 3059 of grade/lib.php:
FROM: if (empty($mod->modname)) { continue; // Just in case, see MDL-7150 }
TO: if (empty($mod->modname) || empty($mod->visible)) { continue; // Just in case, see MDL-7150 }
Maybe ther should be a check for capabilities in place of this.

I don't think this is a bug.
Teachers have an option of hiding assignments after they have been completed to remove clutter, but maintain grades for students.
You also have the option of changing the weighting / category of the assignment to show that it's being reviewed. On our moodle, we hide assignments, just so we can design our own User Interface, so if your feature was introduce we'd destroy our system's entire organisation
