You could use the display/visibility style attribute to show or hide fields. eg. make a decision in Javascript or PHP to set this attribute for each field - just wrap each field in a DIV tag with an ID.

Just a thought:  You could subclass HTML_QuickForm and have its
constructor add all the elements you expect to be common to all the forms 
you will need. Then instances of your subclass can remove/add additional
elements as needed.
