Make system notes less intrusive to a conversation

Description including problem, use cases, benefits, and/or goals

Large issue, but particularly MRs can be cluttered with many system notes. For example the release MR.

This makes it hard to follow and read a conversation and follow what people are saying.

Proposal

A way to minimize the impact of many system notes.

We could:

  1. Add the ability to hide them
  2. Make them smaller / take up less vertical space

Design

Would love to get ideas from our UX'ers.
