Improve Sidebar SSL Warning

As a Hosting Provider, I would like the option to either disable the SSL status in the sidebar, to delay the display of the warning, or reflect that a certificate issuance is in progress when an account is first created.

cPanel now shows the SSL/TLS status of a primary domain in the sidebar, which is great for increasing awareness of the need for SSL. The issue is with first account provisioning where a user who signs up is immediately greeted with a red flag (and opens a support ticket thinking something is broken)

AutoSSL time to issuing a certificate has improved a lot in the past few years, but it's not immediate and so this warning disappears in just a few minutes, but can create a bad first impression. We'd like the option to either disable the SSL status in the sidebar, or alternatively to delay or reflect that a certificate issuance is in progress when an account is first created.

For now we are using the following CSS to hide the warning:

#domainNameRow .text-danger, #domainNameRow .app-stat-upgrade {
        display: none;
}
