  Certain built in remote scopes cannot be hidden

Status in unity-scopes-api package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  The system image ships with certain scopes that cannot be hidden, for
  example Amazon. While it is possible to not ever launch this scope or
  favourite it, thus making it visible only in the scope switcher - a
  user should be able to remove or at least hide it completely from the
  UI (=the scope switcher).

  Possible suggestion for a fix: enable the "swipe to reveal extra actions" in the scope switcher and show a "hide" button there. In settings, expose a "hidden built-in scopes" where user can re-enable these system shipped remote scopes.
  Other possible suggestion (even better) - package the remote scopes so user can remove them normally.
