Adding and removing choices for Categorical Hyperparameters

[startakovsky]

There is a use case to add/remove a choices for Categorical Hyperparameter, and when that happens obviously there may obviously be some automatic impact to conditions in the case of deleting choices.

Is there interest in the community about building such a feature? Is this in your "roadmap"?

Thanks

Is this in your "roadmap"?

I'm afraid we don't have a roadmap for new features but rather only maintain the library at this point due to time constraints.

There apparently was interest in adding new choices in the past via #70 and I can see how one would like that feature. Could you please give a (few) use case(s) for removing choices?

The adding part might be rather easy, but the deletion part may not be that easy. One would have to define what happens to conditions/forbiddens in case the removed value is mentioned.

If you're interested I'd suggest that you start with the addition to get familiar with the code and then fetch out the expected behavior of deletion.
