Hiding of Y-Axis
When hiding an Y-Axis (for example when using multiple Y-Axis), I'd suggest to remove the Y-Axis title as well. Yet only the axis disappears.
We added the new axis.showEmpty option. When you set this to false, empty axes are completely hidden: http://jsfiddle.net/highcharts/gdDbt/. This will be officially released in Highcharts 2.2.

Has this actually been completed? By hiding the axis I understand programmatic control over whether an axis is visible or not.
I've posted a separate request at http://highcharts.uservoice.com/forums/55896-general/suggestions/5164818-control-axis-visibility-show-hide-toggle-axes

Hiding works fine in 2.2 and 2.2.1

Yes, ive realized that is not a good idea to hide the legend items if all series are hidden because you can't revert it. But, what i was needed is the ability to turn axes completely on/off with its legend items together. Mainly yAxes. I've already make the patch, however it would be nice to have it in the official version too.
Thank you for your reply.

Not sure what you mean by getting the legend items faded out... Currently the legend item of the invisible series is faded out with a gray color.

And whats about legend items? Can we get them faded out too?
Version number 2.1.9 says nothing because it will be developed under the same version number until the next major version comes...

Well, it seems that there is a bug if dataLabels are enabled. Everything is ok in 2.1.9.

At least, there should be a flag on the Y-Axis like 'hide title when hiding axis' or something like this (default: false - for one y-Axis hiding makes no sense).

This is annoying me for some time now! -

This is the case when dynamically disabling data - the data disappears, but the Y-axis title still stays there.
Looks a little bit strange.
