You'll notice, any shipyard with cloaking ability, once you activate the cloak: the construction status icon changes to a repair stasus icon, you can click back and forth 'till you've had enough.

Now your cloaked spaceyard ship could fly through enemy space, into a storm sector with cloaking ability, decloak itself and build anything without being seen. If your opponent doesn't have sensors, that is -- even the standard A.I. builds sensor sats in its own space.
Hmmmm, as per the other thread, does that mean that a shipyard could build a shell, then cloak to "repair" it to a full build? Also if, either by designs in steps or repair sequence orders, if the new ships cloak was finished first then can it cloak also and both cloaked still "repair" to a full build.
