Mark,

In the XML you can add a <Hints /> element as follows:
<Proxy ...>
  ...
   <Hints>
     <Property name="PropertyToHide" show="0"/>
   </Hints>
</Proxy>

Then the GUI will not create a widget for it when generating a panel. 
The changes to that property should not result in Apply button becoming 
green. However note that the changes to the property will get tracked by 
the undo/redo stack. That can be overridden as well, if needed.

For Rescan, you can always call 
"vtkSMSourceProxy::UpdatePipelineInformation()" which should result in a 
call to RequestInformation() on the algorithm.
