Hi Glide team! 👋

Just like we can toggle screen visibility with the **eye icon** , it would be super helpful to have the **same icon for components** in the layout panel.

### Why?

- Quickly hide/show components during editing
- No need to set visibility conditions for temporary changes
- Cleaner and faster UI building

Would love to see this small but powerful feature added! 🙏

Hehe, I was supposed to mention it in the topic. For those who are interested, check this topic for the Glide Builder Tweaker.
