Need the ability to hide all tables from list view.

You want to show only a specific table:
Today you would have to list all available tables except the one you want to be available.
With this patch, you can just set hideTables = * (or hideTables := addToList(*)) to hide all tables, and then set hideTable = 0, to show a specific table:

Example:
mod.web_list {
hideTables = *
table.tx_cal_event.hideTable = 0
}
Here only the table tx_cal_event is shown.
