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.

After almost 2 years, I wonder if Figma will ever address this

+1 this seems so easy to implement as its simply a visibility toggle for select properties within nested instances. It literally shouldn’t effect the the rest of the code base at all

+1 it’s super needed when building complex design system components, with multiple atoms inside a larger component. Now it’s easy design consumers can break the molecule by changing specific props in the atom that shouldn’t be accessible.
