File Link Manager - hide/show linked files

SHORT TITLE FOR SUGGESTION/BUG/ENHANCEMENT REQUEST
----------------------------------------------------------------

File Link Manager - hide/show linked files....

---------------------------------------------------------------
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF YOUR REQUEST
---------------------------------------------------------------

It would be ideal if DWG's in FileLinkManager could easily be hidden/shown as opposed to hiding them by locating and coordinating the layers in the layers palette. I use multiple DWGs linked into one file many times to attach different design iterations. Then use the layers palette to hide the design options that I'm not currently working on.

---------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS REQUEST IS IMPORTANT TO YOU
---------------------------------------------------------------

Because it would greatly increase workflow speed and make it easier to manage multiple design options by file.

Been wanting this one for some time now. Its possible to do in Acad so it should be easy to implement in Max
