Uh guys, might I humbly suggest that perhaps some info on these things be supplied... Thanks. You guys rock..!!
There probably won't be too many Windows 8 RTM KB articles showing up until the official availability date, even if the update is available. Even for Windows 7, the KB number won't show for many hotfixes. Also only mainstream (security, the odd system update or two) updates will show in the Windows Catalog, there are many more hotfixes, which this and the Windows 7 hotfix repository cover that won't be in the Windows Catalog.
Thanks to both McRip and komm for their great effort in maintaining their respective Windows 7 and Windows 8 hotfix repositories. Is there any reason for M$ to hide the KB articles from being viewed by us, even though the hotfixes have been released? I find it somewhat annoying not to be able to read the unavailable KB articles, because I want to know the description of the hotfixes.
There is either an error and the KB article isn't posted correctly (it happens) or the update is paid for by a company etc to fix the specific issues. Something along those lines anyway!

The updates can be uninstalled. Use dism for it or WinToolkit. There is an uninstaller for updates integrated. Those hotfixes will never be offered by Windows Update.
