Description

For example, ART profiles have trampoline frames which are fine *but* not great for having in profiles. Similar things I'm sure exist in Python etc also.

We should automatically hide things like this and let people reenable them if they want.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the code that represents or filters interpreter frames in profiles, then inspect how ART trampoline frames are handled and whether similar Python cases exist. Done means such frames are hidden automatically while users can reenable them.
