Hidden text is showing in XTM Workbench despite its non-visibility in the source file

Sometimes the client might see some segments in XTM Workbench which are not visible in the source file. Such content can be found within the XML structure of the file. IDML files are saved in XML format, which is readable by both humans and computers.
