Arma 3
Since Arma 3 v1.50 there is a Description.ext's showHUD[] array param that is identical in format to the extended showHUD command. When present, it will disable showHUD command entirely, allowing mission makers to permanently alter visibility of some HUD elements.

Killzone Kid
The "cursors" parameter controls visibility of the action menu as well as weapon cursors. However if 1st param "hud" hides and disables action menu, param "cursors" only hides it. So you get invisible action menu that is fully operational. inGameUISetEventHandler will still fire on interaction, giving the information about selected item on the action menu even if you cannot see it. Unfortunately it also hides icons drawn with drawIcon3D.
