Thanks in advance

Setting a feature's level to 0 hides it and disables install/remove
You can disable a feature installation on runtime using feature condition that sets the level to 0.

See Condition Table

Specially take care of this:
"Conditions should be carefully chosen so that a feature is not enabled on install and then disabled on uninstall. This will orphan the feature and the product will not be able to be uninstalled."

@nirbar: Note that Johannes is asking about the Suite project type, which is different from Basic MSI.
