I'm not sure what precisely you refer to, so to be sure:
An object woud appear as entry in every group, with the highlighting for  
every entry if selected or active.

Or dou you mean it should be obvious on every single entry that there are more 
entries for the same object in the hierarchy?

An object will be visible, if it is set to visible and has at least one entry 
either on the top level, or in a group that is set to visible. Same for visibility 
on rendering and being unlocked. The only thing to help communicate this mechanism 
missing from my mockup that I can think of is showing visibility settings of entries 
of objects that are set to visible, but do not fulfill the other criteria grayed out.

Please be more specific, if I havn't adressed what you meant!
