Toggle Layer Thumbnail

This idea is for Photoshop on the Desktop.

It would be great if there was a right-click context menu option to toggle individual Layer Thumbnails on/off. When documents contain many layers, it could be useful to hide certain layer thumbnails that are not important while leaving other, important thumbnails visible. For multiple layers, grouping them into a folder would work. However, if the stacking order doesn't permit that or logic precludes doing so, we're left with putting one layer into a folder to collapse it's thumbnail. This seems counterintuitive. 

 

Thanks for your time and consideration.

The idea is to hide the Layer Thumbnail. Not hide the entire Layer. Thanks though.

If you assign colours to the layers (right click colour) you can choose filter by kind and only show those colours or to exclude those coloured layers (using colour none)
