If you want to hide the forums altogether in ALL screens (eg in search etc. too) according to the user's style choice, well this requires way too much hacking.
But if you want to just make it hidden only in the forumdisplay template you may do it with advanced templates by applying conditionals to the relevant template. I guess Mist did a similiar thing, you can check the hack thread or contact him for further information.
However if what you try to do is to make some forums visible/invisible to the users according to their choice, you may find better "keys" than user's style choice.
