Some months ago Patrick Schmidt told me that \hideNotes could be changed
in order to hide fret numbers in TabStaff:

http://lilypond-s-support-for-tablatures.3383434.n2.nabble.com/hideNotes-in-tablature-td5851217.html#a5851340
 

I really look forward to seeing it implemented, but I don't know if he's
still working on it.

In that thread you can see also the bug I was talking about in this
thread. Here's the open issue:
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1459 

Anyway I believe that if you want to hide a note in Staff, you want to
hide the number in TabStaff as well. To me this is the main bug!
I hope that Patrick will jump in and share his opinion on this matter.

Thanks!
