Priorities: make icon in Main Menu removable within layout template

Description - let System Administrators remove the "Priorities" button from the top-right waffle/Main Menu within Layout Templates.

Why is this feature important to you - 1) if we've disabled Priorities at the system level, we clearly do not want the icon appearing to our users, 2) we have the ability to add/drop all other icons, and 3) the alt text for the icon tells users to ask their administrator to enable this feature, making the choices we've made (to not enable Priorities) seem unimportant, as if Adobe knows our users better than we do. This also adds confusion to our users when we've specifically coached them to ignore the new left-hand side bar on the Home page.

How would you like the feature to work - add "Priorities" as an Active Item/Available Item icon option in the Main Menu settings within Layout Templates.

Current Behaviour - "Priorities" does not appear as an Active Item/Available Item icon option in the Main Menu settings within Layout Templates, and instead appears for all users, as a greyed out icon if we've disabled Priorities at a global level.

Agreed, Here's an idea; allow admins to control what their own users see and stop trying to force things on users by cluttering up their interface with useless stuff.

Also, get rid of the patronizing message that encourages my users to put in tickets for a feature that won't work for them in the first place. I disabled it for a list of reasons, I don't have time to explain that to hundreds of well-meaning curious people.

Agree! I went looking for a way to remove in "set up" and figured I'd check community knowing there'd likely be feedback already. When we are trying to nail down a new process and get users accustomed to current view the last thing we need is another distraction. Rolling out with a big change to "Home" is not ideal either. =(
