[Idea] Add --category option

[0xff8]

Your idea

Hi devs,

The current version of glpi-inventory supports --no-category option, where some sensitive information can be disabled in the final report. I would like to request opposite behavior, where every category can be disabled by default, and only requested categories (if glpi-inventory runs with new --category option) will be added into report. We have a bunch of different OS, but we value privacy for our employees, so we want to request the minimal information which is absolutely necessary. And having blacklisted categories is a bad approach, since in the future, there could be more categories and unnecessary data will be sent to the server. So someone has to maintain the blacklist for --no-category option.

Are there any plans to add such option?
Would you accept a pull request if I would implement it myself?

Hi @0xff8

thank you for your idea.

There's actually no plan to add such option.

Yes, we would accept a PR if you would implement it yourself.
