Didn't we discuss freezing just some weeks ago? As far as I remeber it 
was possible to "freeze" stuff by moving it to a different scene via an 
incredibly long and complicated series of shortcuts. Yet, I still think 
an original freezing-feature should be implemented. Studio-Max handles 
this nicely as it is possible to select whether to hide frozen objects 
or give them transparency.
