  We investigate a form of visibility introduced recently by Bharali and Zimmer
-- and shown to be possessed by a class of domains called Goldilocks domains.
The range of theorems established for these domains stem from this form of
visibility together with certain quantitative estimates that define Goldilocks
domains. We show that some of the theorems alluded to follow merely from the
latter notion of visibility. We call those domains that possess this property
visibility domains with respect to the Kobayashi distance. We provide a
sufficient condition for a domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ to be a visibility domain.
A part of this paper is devoted to constructing a family of domains that are
visibility domains with respect to the Kobayashi distance but are not
Goldilocks domains. Our notion of visibility is reminiscent of uniform
visibility in the context of CAT(0) spaces. However, this is an imperfect
analogy because, given a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\geq 2$,
it is, in general, not even known whether the metric space $(\Omega,{\sf
k}_{\Omega})$ (where ${\sf k}_{\Omega}$ is the Kobayashi distance) is a
geodesic space. Yet, with just this weak property, we establish two
Wolff--Denjoy-type theorems.
