I wonder if some emulators might not let you do a cut and paste from a
non-display field. As someone who has written a couple of 3270 emulators I
can tell you it would be easy to add an option to an emulator to make
non-display data accessible in some fashion.

What do you mean by masking? If you just want nondisplay, that's an
attribute in the 3270 data stream. but it does not prevent somebody in
the middle from inspecting packets.
