Example

When having many projects, the workflow gets blocked by many grayed out projects that are not selectable and of low value.

I propose to remove the already imported projects from the view without adding a toggle button.

Workaround:
* First add the repository to the repository view
* Then start the import from the repository view context menu.

That will start the smart import wizard which allows hiding the already imported wizards (but has a different handling of nested projects).

Why without toggle? Other people might want the current behavior, and the smart import wizard does have a toggle. The smart import wizard is also accessible via File->Import...->Git->Import projects from git (with smart import).
