Disabling parameters in nested components

I think that’s the new feature “nested components” need to be more functional. For example: I have a card with nested component button. But the only parameter that i need to edit is icon on this button, all other settings useless in this component. I thinks it will be cool if i can disable some of nested component’s paramters like show icon or btn size and leave only icon-type parameter. And it will be more cool if i can make preferred icons for nested component (in this card i can choose between filled like or unfilled)

Yeah we totally need this feature too to make things for our designers more easy. E.g. I have a very powerful Text Input component that could be used for inputs, textfields, dropdowns etc. but to make the component easy for the designers, I have to detach those and make specific changes to remove the settings because I want a specific combination of the powerful component to be fixed and only a view parameters to be “editable”.

I want to be able to disable some variants from publishing without having to remove those variants from its parent components.

Are there any news here? This is 3 years old. Did anybody find a workaround?

I am having unnecessary long property panels even though I decluttered components. This is quite confusing for library users and not very good for consistency. I am currently using a lock emoji to indicate that this property is not to be changed… not very professional.
