The "visible" field of the entry will use 8 bits. I know that it is 
uint16_t now, but my plan is to use 8 of its bits for the stream_id field.

Currently we use the first 3 bits as different visibility flags and we 
have 4 unused bits available for adding more visibility flags in the 
future. Because the PLUGIN_UNTOUCHED flag has a different meaning I 
decided to place it at the very end.

Is this a problem?

Thanks!
Yordan
