Hide/Show Tokens

Greetings, I was wanting a way to hide tokens while not having to hide the whole area. This would be used for stealthy characters hiding behind completely visible boxes or when the wizard casts an invisibility spell. With the ability to hide a token, of course the ability to show a token would be needed. Thank you for your time.
Ctrl+Shift+K moves selected tokens to the GM layer (Where they're only visible by the GM) You can also right click a token and select the GM layer from the context menu. Hope this helps!
I have given the same advise about the GM layer for those GMs looking to hide their minions before unleashing horrible death on their unsuspecting players Muuhhaaaaaahahahahaah ! er excuse me that slipped out :-) On another note, what I would also like to see (and what I think some people are also referring to) is how can a player make their own token invisible and still maintain control? I mean there can be some work around such as the GM taking control of the token and placing it in the GM layer, but the player may feel as he/she is being left out. You can also put a small (5 ft) aura around the PC and state that that means it is invisible and the player still retains control, but what I think would be really cool is if the player token can be given a semi transparency effect so that it looks like it is hidden (similar to the view of the tokens on the GM Layer). Just a thought.
