Hiding lines after showing a pyplot figure

I'm using pyplot to display a line graph of up to 30 lines. I would like to add a way to quickly show and hide individual lines on the graph. Pyplot does have a menu where you can edit line properties to change the color or style, but its rather clunky when you want to hide lines to isolate the one you're interested in. Ideally, I'd like to use checkboxes on the legend to show and hide lines. (Similar to showing and hiding layers in image editors like Paint.Net) I'm not sure if this is possible with pyplot, so I am open to other modules as long as they're somewhat easy to distribute.
