Category Hider Theme Component

I saved 81 subforums and there was a space problem as seen in the picture.
This component needs to be in the kernel because all forum systems have it.

@keegan - incredible plugin that solved a major use case for me in making Discourse a viable use case for team’s outside of my own!

We had a use case from our documentation team where they want to add comments to their docs, for which we’ll use the embed feature.

The issue is that I didn’t want this category filled with topics that were really comment backends for docs, and don’t serve a purpose in regular, day-to-day conversation. This plugin allows me to hide the category so it’s not immediately visible to day-to-day community activity, but the topics are still accessible when users get notifications on the topics they’ve already engaged with.

Would it be possible to add an option to the theme component where this does not apply to a list of user groups? In my case, it would ideally remain visible to admins and our documentation team.
