Is there a mechanic in DR itself or in the Genie front end to completely squelch or ignore another character, so one never has to hear or see their actions?

"Technically correct" is the worst kind of correct.

In Genie, you can create gags, but you would want to be careful how you word them, or you could inadvertently squelch other things.
The Genie forum is the best place for such questions: http://www.genieclient.com/bulletin/forum/28-configuration-settings/

The following two substitutes that I use will substitute "was squelched." for anything that they say, whisper, gweth, smile, etc.:
Note: You will have to hit reply and cut and paste from there to get the actual code, since the forums treat some of it as formatting tags.
#subs {(You hear the ghostly voice of |)(Player1|Player2|etc)(.)(say|whisper|think|exclaim|ask|smiles)(.)} {$2 was squelched.} {charactersquelch}
#subs {\[(Player1|Player2|etc)\](.*)} {[$1] was squelched.} {charactersquelch}
The following gag that I use for the particularly annoying one will completely gag the same so that you don't see it at all:
#gag {(You hear the ghostly voice of |)(Player1|Player2|etc)(.)(say|whisper|think|exclaim|ask|smiles)(.)} {charactersquelch}
You can turn them off and on by typing or macro-ing the command #class charactersquelch on/off.
I don't recommend completely squelching everything they do, since this includes stuff that could have an actual mechanical impact on your character. You could easily expand the above to include stuff like slaps, kicks, and so forth if you wanted to, though.
