Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It would be handy to exempt an agent from inheriting a single check or task. Some of my automation policies are a long list and having to duplicate it and remove a single check or task then having to maintain all of the variations would get tedious.

Describe the solution you'd like
It seems reasonable to go to an client, right-click on the check or task and choose "exempt" or "block inheritance" and it show in the list with a strikethrough and be disabled from being deployed to the agent.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Making multiple duplicate policies with alterations and having to add/remove and modify the checks and tasks equally on each policy sounds tedious.

Additional context
There are some computers that have low memory, but it's soldered on board and cannot be upgraded. I don't need to be notified constantly about the memory being over 80%, for example. The customer accepts that this computer is low powered and chooses not to upgrade it.
There are other examples of computers that need all checks and tasks except one, and this would be a huge help to my workflow.
