Form Filter, http://drupal.org/project/formfilter, provides a UI for hiding 
fields. (They are passed as values, and hide only if they meet validation 
criteria.)

It can also be used by developers to fetch altered versions of forms--feed 
in a form id and the fields you wish to have, and get a version of that form 
with only those fields visible, but the other fields passed as values. This 
is used in Active Edit module, part of Javascript Tools, to enable in place 
editing.
