Disable Auto Generation of New Devices and Entities?

[ibejtm]

DD was great for helping me create my initial dashboard views and populating the various rooms with devices. Now that my dashboards are established though, I'm having trouble keeping them clean of miscellaneous devices and, in particular, entities. Is there a way to default any new items to disabled until I've had a chance to add what I need to the dashboards? I'm running into issues where the underlying entities change (maybe more sensors are added, things are renamed, integrations change, etc) and I get a bunch of spurious entries added to my room views.

I've searched through the documentation, forum threads, and config settings with no luck. Is that an option currently? If not, any recommendations on how people usually handle that situation? I have a fairly diverse set of devices, so as integrations are updated, I frequently see new things pop up.

Thanks!
