Should the drape on the cross be displayed year round?

To the best of my knowledge there is no Church document that ever authorized a Crucifix or Cross to be "draped" other than a complete veil which is called for on Passion Sunday and Holy Week. This sounds like the idea of a liturgist and should be treated as such, in other words, a cross should NEVER be "draped" much less year round.
