    Default Family Drop-Down Organization

    Is there a way to organize the families/detail components in the drop-down list hierarchically? I'm assuming that if I was careful to name all of the items with a CSI number prefix then it would be organized that way, but I'm thinking of a kind of tree, similar to the view organization tree. Something like this:

    07 - Thermal and Moisture
    - Flashing
    - Sealant and Backer Rod
    - ...
    08 - Doors and Windows
    - HM Door Frame
    - Threshold
    - ...

    I do not think you can rename the family group names i.e. doors windows etc. You also cannot rename system families like text and dimensions so those would be scattered around in alpha-numeric order as well. Would be a nice feature though. Sometimes I would like to hide the families from the tree since I rarely access them that way
