In version 2.0 we added the possibility for listings, filtered by folderKind, to filter out the inappropriate folders from the tree of folders (GN4-1394).

You can also hide the children of filtered items in the tree by means of the attribute hideFilteredChildren attribute to the UI.Template (GN4-1743). Set the hideFilteredChildren to True to hide all the children of items that don't match the filter condition. If this attribute is set to false (default) the filtered items are displayed (because one or more child can match the filter condition).

The following screenshot shows on the left side the list of folders in EdAdmin4, and on the right side the Editorial navigator on the Shell main tab in Fred4. As you can see, the folders with archive and wires folder kind do not appear on the tree of folders.
