Want to hide metadata forms while in "Edit" mode

[John Hall]

We have pages used to manage a security review workflow where the page metadata is collected in "Table Data" and associated macros for good data hygiene, but only the body of the page and the "Table Data" values in the header should be editable by most users .  The metadata "Table Data" markup should be hidden when a normal user "Edit"'s the page.  We'd prefer that it would be uneditable except by a small subset of users, but just hiding it (since it's quite large) when in Edit mode would also be very desirable.  Are there any markups or macros we can use to hide content while in "Edit" mode?
