Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's not clear how the dashboard choses which accessories to display (other than it only displays up to 9). I have one widget that starts with a "z" that comes before one with a "w", so it's not alphabetical. Maybe it's alphabetical based on the plug in name or something. Regardless, it's hard to tell, so I have to delete plug ins do display the ones I want.

Describe the solution you'd like
Chose what items to display. I don't mind too much which way we do this. Probably the best way would be to allow users to specify exactly which accessories to display (maybe based on a list)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Probably a quicker and easier to implement solution would be based off of the "Hide accessory" In the Accessory section of the main UI. This would be slightly less flexible (I can imagine someone would have some reason to use the UI AND dashboard you created, so it would be great to allow both.

Another alternative would be to show this based off homekit favorites or rooms. Again, slightly less flexible, but still better

This is absolutely an issue that I am aware of. Currently, it pulls the switches and displays the first ones in the order that the Homebridge server sends them through the insecure mode API. It appears as though Homebridge is sorting them by their vendor's name in this API. I hope to work something out to fix this issue as soon as I can, but it is requiring a large amount of reworking from my end. I have my AP Exams coming up fairly soon so my priority is to study for those as of right now, but this is my focus when I have time.
