This add-on can be quite useful for demonstrations, and for creating simple things that control or are affected by other things using rules. But when it is enabled, I get annoyed by having to scroll through a long list of standard virtual things that I do not want to add to my gateway, whenever I decide to add a new smart home device.

Would it be possible using the new configuration settings to allow the user to add standard capability things, similar to the ability to add new custom things? Then it would act more like the Pulse add-on. You only see things that you have configured in the add-ons settings.

This change would have a secondary benefit of letting me create multiple on/off switches for example, whereas the current version only lets me add one of each capability type.
