The feature is actually under 'show', and it was in the past only hiding
symlinks, there isn't even a check if the file is infact a symlink when
serving it. We would have to figure out first if it is possible to check if
a file is accessed via a symlink, or that the directory that is requested
is a symlink.

I'll make this a feature request.
