Hidden terminal preference is a poor UI. Now whenever I find some garbage in the search results that I can generalize to some exclude rule instead of adding a new filter to the Blacklist I'd have to remember the cli incantation and also remember the old regex to add to it, and that regex will get rather unwieldy

And it's also not just a folder regex, but also files

And it should be per index since the exclusion rules aren't global by nature, e.g., I'd like to exclude various build artifacts everywhere except for my Source Code regex, where it's fine to have them included as they might contain useful information

Thank you
