I suppose an NFS server could do this, but I'm not aware of any
other multi-protocol file server (eg, Oracle ZFS or NetApp) that
does.
Dot-files are obscured on POSIX systems by the NFS clients and their
user space (ls and graphical file navigators). I don't see why the
Windows NFS client can't be similarly architected. Or perhaps it
could fabricate the HIDDEN attribute for such files itself.
