Ups, I forgot about this.

My opinion: In order not to confuse the user MergeMesh shouldn't hide the source
node (since the user could press "show all", then it's lost). There should be a
separate option, a script by now, that disables them from render on Renderman or
the Viewport. (setting the painter to None, i can do it)

Cheers!
