A problem with blocks that are collapsed by default, is that on page load, there is an unwanted fraction of a second that shows the blocks in expanded state, after which they are collapsed.
Is it possible to prevent the page from displaying the block, and render the collapsed block after Drupal has understood that the block is collapsed?
The same annoying effect i see with logintoboggan by the way. I can't imagine that there is not a solution to prevent this.

The blocks CSS is open, and it requires JavaScript (which is run after page load) to collapse them. So it is inevitable to see them open for a fraction.

Subscribe.

Wonder if there are any hooks to make it workaround the fact that the content loads with the block CSS open.

This can be done when the theme in use implements content_attributes in the block template, otherwise the JS will kick in as fallback.
