With the Search component, I want the option to hide the "Search in" sources dropdown menu when the component has multiple search sources configured. In particular, a "hide-source-dropdown" attribute would be useful.

For example, the search component below has several search sources (some LayerSearchSources, some LocatorSearchSources). I would like to be able to hide the dropdown menu all together and remove the UI control. Our users don't really need to be able to choose which sources they're searching in. It's obvious from the search results which are the ones they're looking for and which are not relevant.

I've found that this menu can be especially confusing for screen reader users or non-GIS users who aren't familiar with the concept of "search sources".

Thanks for sharing this idea here, @fdeters. We think it's a good one, and will consider it for a future release.
