Is there a good reason why form helper wraps hidden fields with div (inline "display:none")?

I almost certain it doesnt.

Code

Code:
<p>

&lt;?=form_hidden('user_id', set_value('user_id', '9' ));?&gt;

&lt;?=form_submit('mysubmit', 'Update User!');?&gt;

</p>

Generated

Code:
<p>

&lt;input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="9" /&gt;

&lt;input type="submit" name="mysubmit" value="Update User!"  /&gt;&lt;/p>
