Marks a field as hidden. This column and its values will not be shown in the list and detail view for objects of this type. If the column is nullable, it will be hidden in the create and edit forms as well (and this will result in the column always being NULL when creating/editing objects). If, instead, it's not nullable column, it will be included in the create and edit forms as it would otherwise prevent the creation of items.

Please note that this is not meant as a security feature, but rather to hide uninformative columns that clutter the interface. In fact, since the create and edit form come pre-filled with all the information, these views will show the value of the hidden column (if it's not nullable).
