Description

Allow Dataverse user to hide/deselect the subfield, so that dataset depositors don't see that field in the "parent" or compound field.

The reason is that a depositor could be overwhelmed by the number of fields that she may not need to be concerned about, especially for the big schemas like DarwinCore.
