How to hide template VMs or other in Qubes Manager

[P R]

Hello,

I'd like to keep my Qubes Manager Interface lean so that I can see what is going on.

Is there any way to hide not running template VMs from Qubes Manager?

I would like to see this as an additional option in the Qubes "View" menu (Show/Hide template VMs).

As the dvm-AppVM can be hide via "Show/Hide Internal VMs" I tried to edit /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml and set the Internal flag vom false to true, but this doesn't hide the VM in Qubes Manager, even after closing and restarting Qubes Manager.

Question:

Can the hide Template VM feature be added in further versions of Qubes Manager

And:

How can I mark a VM as internal?

use qvm-prefs in dom0:
qvm-prefs -s <name> Internal True

Hides any entry from QubesManager AND the Menu.
Ideal if you are preparing a Qubes box for someone else.

I think this has been requested before but as a combination from the
"View" menu provides the running/internal combo it wasn't felt to be
necessary.
