Idea: Enhanced devices - categories and dividers

    Typical Use Case example:
    - some users want to control variables and filters (power users).
    - other users want to control filters only (simple users).
    - a third set of users only accesses the report occasionally, and wants filters grouped by purpose (geography / business unit / time).

    So we have variables and two each of geog/bu/time filters which can be shown on the devices view / RHS sidebar.

    Idea:
    - allow the insertion of spaces / line breaks.
    - allow colouring of devices by group and adding group titles.
    - allow devices groups to be collapsed.

    Even if I use a different device view for each group of devices, it doesn't allow me to collapse them neatly, which is often necessary given screen size limits.

    Ideal use case (see attached illustration):
    - key device groups and/or filters are expanded when users open tabs.
    - superuser device groups and/or filters can be expanded when users wish to utilise them.
    - device group titles and colours/breaks quickly communicate what filters are for with less need for instruction.

    If there are a lot of devices, or width is at a premium, then using dividers would allow devices to be separated slightly so the above could be achieved visually to some extent.
