Expose/hide nested instances -> at component property level

With the new update, we have a great new feature, but unfortunately, it’s not usable with our component structure.
Exposing all props of a nested instance also exposes props that we don’t want in the context of the consuming component.

What if we could also select which properties to expose? This would lead to a cleaner sidebar with only valid props.

I don’t expose nested components because of this missing.

Yes, this is something that was so nice from Sketch and it blows my mind Figma doesn’t support this. PLEASE Figma, add this. It’d be so simple and make a massive impact.

+1000 this would be a huge help and guarantee stricter enforcement of a design system!

This is a must have for design systems small or massive. Please add this as a feature.

Are we there yet?
Please add this feature.

Absolutely necessary! Right now, users of the Design System have to be very careful not to mess around with a nested property if it is also available at the main level. It is confusing and might produce undesirable results in the UI.
