Much needed functionality. Sure, it can be done in the cli, but the pitfalls are many and the users comfortable enough to use it like that are few.

I agree especially since Zerocoin is back in the news.

Will my account not be visible to other people?

How come you can be stealthy in CLI

But I dont have any more details. I think we are going to need tons of tutorials on bitshares' functionalities.

It would be cool to actually have a stealth mode like you're mentioning so people can enable or disable it at will. That way people won't make public transactions that were supposed to be private. Then a simple prompt pop up asking "are you sure you want to make this transaction with stealth mode on/off?" and we're set. That would be nice, helps preventing mistaken transactions.
