Daniel,
this is how I see these attributes on form elements:
"enabled"
the functionalities of the form element are available and interactions
by users are allowed
"disabled"
the functionalities of the form element are available and interactions
by users are disallowed
"hidden"
the form element is not rendered by the UI and can only be modified
programmatically
None of them specify if the field would be submitted or not, if I
recall correctly all of the form elements values should be serialized
and submitted, "enabled", "disabled" and "hidden". Differing
implementations are framework specific and most probably not done
through a standard form submission but through an Ajax request
instead.
