Turn off actions in an action group

I think this may have been suggested before, probably by me. But, in case it is new...

How about a means to turn-off (I.e. ignore) actions in an action group or trigger action list. Possibly by checkbox next to the action description in the Show All list. There are times when, for whatever reason, I want to not execute one step. Maybe some piece of equipment is not working, or I am getting error messages from that step, etc.

Thanks.

I ran into this need last night when I wanted to exclude a few outside lights from their normal routine because of Halloween. I ended up disabling Indigo communication for the light devices, which wasn’t ideal but it was the quickest way I could think of last-minute.

The worst case is when it is an embedded script you want to turn off. Yea, I know, just ad exit(). But, that is not obvious, especially, 6 months later, when you can't figure out how it ever worked.
