Such a feature could exist: do not list unknown SSIDs, or do not list a
certain list of SSIDs.
 
But it could backfire: you try to connect to a WiFi, and you don't see
it listed, not remembering that you told it previously to hide itself.

  It seems yet another 'Arlen' type of strange 'need', but AFAICT,
'Gelato' isn't 'Arlen'.

  Anyway, AFAIC, it's a non-problem, because if he doesn't want to see
his nearby apartment neighbor's networks, just don't look at them!

  I don't see my neighbours' networks, unless I specifically *look*for
them. When *outside* - his "store or my doctor's office clinic" examples
- just *do* look for networks and he will see the networks he wants to
see and will *not* see the networks he doesn't want to see, because
they'll be out of range.

  Elementary, dear Watson!
