I think this suggestion might work for my use case?
If I take the temperature sensor, the a device might just have temperature, temperature + humidity or temperature + humidity + pressure. Humidity is currently handled but pressure isn't, so this could be a device to be made visible.
Another example might be an Aeotec multiSensor which has a lot of properties: humidity, motion, battery illuminance, acceleration and temperature
So I could define a multiSensor device with all those sub-devices and just make the ones visible that the user requires.
How difficult is it to do this and I guess it isn't something that would happen in the short term?
In the interim, I can just stick to one device and dynamically create states.
I would be happy to beta test it though!
