This project isn't active at the moment, so there's no real point in keeping this task around, it's just cluttering the list of tasks assigned to me.

I think we'd want to reevaluate the design here anyway. Personally I think hiding things from panels based on selected objects is likely to be too complicated in practice, both in the code and for the user.

Anyway, making a task like this is quick and it's better to make it right before you start work or your plans become stale.
