TYPO3 Core

In my repository I use:

public function initializeObject()
{
    $querySettings = new Typo3QuerySettings();
    $querySettings->setRespectStoragePage(false);
    $querySettings->setRespectSysLanguage(false);
    $querySettings->setIgnoreEnableFields(true);
    $this->setDefaultQuerySettings($querySettings);
}

Although setIgnoreEnableFields was set to true in the default query settings I am not able to find hidden elements with findByUid in my controller.

As a workaround, I've overridden findByUid in the repository as follows:

public function findByUid($uid)
{
    $query = $this->createQuery();
    return $query->matching($query->equals('uid', $uid))->execute()->getFirst();
}

This seems to be related to:

I am not sure if this is a bug. Possibly this is just a missing piece in the documentation.
