Unless it already exists in some form, a module that provided an admin interface to form_alter functionality in general might be handy... being able to hide fields, etc. without leaving the Drupal admin interface
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.
