If I place a nebula, and I place planets, asteroids, etc in it, will they ever become visible to the players?
If a player turns on "Show Planet Names", the hidden planets' names will reveal their positions.
Pretty sure that this was fixed in one of the later Gold patches.

The "mask background objects" setting doesn't make invisible objects visible. They are either visible or invisible depending only on game factors like the obscuration of the nebulae and the players sensor level. What the mask background objects does is when they do become visible due to sensors they will have a funky square around them if they are in a nebulae unless you turn that on.
Yes. Masking refers to transparency masking, not making images invisible.
