Hide child drivers?

Is there a way to hide child device drivers from the Type list when you create a virtual device?

While there appears no harm in creating a device using a child driver, there's probably no reason to ever do so since a child device would likely be dependent upon its parent for some, if not all functionality.

If not, perhaps consider adding a driver attribute such as "hidden" someday?

Probably not what you’re looking for, but you are able to collapse the view so that child apps/devices are hidden since platform version 2.2.8.

This can be done by clicking on the black arrows to the right of the parent’s name.

Thanks, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about creating a virtual device. Child devices that should only be created programmatically by their parent shouldn't appear in the list.

This would probably include most, if not all of the drivers with the "component" value set to true.
