Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We sync collections with PAH from ansible galaxy. In this progress the namespace avatars are downloaded. But they can be from any third party source. This is bad because it seems to be a security issue and also it is difficult because of firewall rules that have to be adjusted potentially.
Describe the solution you'd like
For us it would be sufficient to have an option to disable avatar downloads.
And it would be great to also make this option accessable via PAH WebUI, but I think I would have to create an additional RFE there with Redhat, once this is implemented here.
Yours

Research direction
Start by tracing the collection sync path that downloads namespace avatars from Ansible Galaxy and identify where a configuration option could control that behavior. Review the issue comments for any decisions about configuration or PAH WebUI scope. Done means the option reliably prevents avatar downloads during sync and its behavior is covered by the relevant tests.
