While you can "add" a non-broadcasting wireless network to your list of WiFi networks on your phone, I found with my home WiFi network that when I had SSID broadcast off i was almost never able to connect. Once I turned SSID broadcast on, I have had no trouble. Most definitely a bug.

Since you are unlikely to get the admin to broadcast the SSID, then even though you can add the network (if you know the name and settings) tou most likely won't be able to reliably connect, unless someone has found a work-around for the bug.
