The ElementProxy class has a set of methods that query the state of the element:
visible?
hidden?
present?
absent?
These methods all include waiting, so instead of just querying the state they wait for the condition to be true.
This causes considerable performance issues due to developers not being aware of this behavior. Since we have other methods for waiting for elements to be visible / hidden / present / absent, these methods should not wait at all.
