include EDS without displaying

As a guess, can you make the div hidden?  I don't *think* that the EDS
messes with the visibility at that level and AIUI hiding that would hide
everything else..

If that doesn't do it (or is unacceptable for some reason) I'll happily see
a RFI to either (configrably) supress visible warnings or to provide and
external hook to hide the whole thing (and I'll look at EDS-48, promise!)
