Workspace: hide entry/exit props to clean up left hand menu

Every prop and every classification of a prop has a corresponding 'exit' and 'entry' version of the prop.   This leads end users to be presented with far too many options which can be very confusing.

For example, the below prop has 2 classifications; as a result the end user is present with 9 different options!

    To be fair since I created this post, Adobe have introduced Virtual Report Suite (VRS) curation that can be used to hide entry and exit versions of a prop.  VRS curation is what we now use extensively in our organisations to clean things up for our end users.
