Short description of error
When Armature is hidden via Outliner in Pose Mode, the selection, active object, and the Mode remains on that armature, not allowing to select anything anymore. Same happens with Meshes and Edit Mode, but one is still able to exit the Edit Mode. I assume it's likely that one either shouldn't be able to hide the object one is in Edit/Pose mode with, or the Mode probably should be exited upon hiding it's object. Or, at least, switching the Mode off shouldn't be disabled if the object is considered still active/selected.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Select a Bone,
Press Disable in Viewports for Armature object in Outliner,

Can't select other objects in viewport now, or exit the pose mode.

Just stumbled over this again, and one thing I am now uncertain about:
In both 3.0 as well as current master:

I am able to exit posmode / enter object mode via {key tab} in the 3D view or pushing the posmode button in the Outliner
can you describe again why/how this is not possible for you?

Initially, the armature can exit and enter Pose mode.
In pose mode, in Outliner, press "Disable in Vewports" (the monitor button) of the armature.
Now the mode changes inside Mode drop-down menu are greyed out. "Tab" doesn't do anything either. And one is not able to change selection in viewport.

There's no problem saving Blend file in that state. Here: armature2.blend
In open file one can't change Mode via drowp-down or select anything in the viewport.

Oh boy, was testing this with the eye icon this time.
Sorry for the noise!
