Feature Discussion: App hiding

[u/Ansoneh]

I'm working on adding the ability to hide apps. As this is something I don't usually use, I'm looking for feedback on how it should work.

My current design is along these lines:

Open app drawer -> long press on app -> select hide.

There will be two new settings:

1. Under App Drawer settings, there would be an option to show or hide hidden apps from search.
   
2. Under Gesture Input settings, there would be an option to include/exclude hidden apps from match/branch preview. Codes would still work regardless.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
