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.

Yeah a true issue I face every time I create a component and how I need to structure it to avoid properties that conflict or don’t make sense to show.

Another issue is allowing us to reorder different types of properties to be above the main ones, if its a Boolean property I can’t put it above a Variant property which makes it difficult to organize the properties and have them in an order that makes sense to the component.
