So I had this issue once when I made a clipboard error and posted something with potentially personal information. Since staff used hidetext, the message could still be read by everyone with the show hidden lines option, and it could not be permanently removed. An option to permanently hide lines after clearing would be helpful.

This exists. Use /cleartext.
It's worth noting that
/cleartext just tells the client not to show those lines (and doesn't send it to new people joining the room); once you've sent something personal, it's unfortunately not really possible to ensure no one can see it, since they could use modified clients.- Status
