In the current prototype on ee-flow.wmflabs.org

• comments are hidden via the "actions" menu (small flag icon).
• topics are hidden via the small angle/arrow symbol.

This is inconsistent. Hiding should work the same for comments and topics.

I propose to

1. add an "action" menu to topics, too, and add hide to that menu.
2. make the angle/arrow symbol on topics work like when cklicking on the header area (folding/unfolding a topic temporarily, but not hiding it permanently). This is what most users await when clicking such an arrow symbol anyway. A permanent action which affects all users is rather confusing at that place.
