[DashboardLayout and Account] A Few Issues

[aress31]

Steps to reproduce

<DashboardLayout
  defaultSidebarCollapsed
  slots={{ toolbarAccount: () => <></>, sidebarFooter: SidebarFooter }}
>

const SidebarFooter = ({ mini }) => (
  <Account
    slotProps={{ preview: { variant: mini ? "condensed" : "expanded" } }}
  />
);

Current behavior

Is there a more effective way to disable the toolbarAccount? From my tests, the only method to disable it is as shown in the POC. It might be beneficial to introduce a hideAccount prop for the DashboardLayout. Additionally, when the Account is set as a sidebarFooter, the arrow connecting the Avatar to the menu is pointing in the wrong direction, see the POC.

The sidebar footer variant is still in progress at #4255 - feel free to share any feedback on the PR itself.

We discussed the hideAccount prop once earlier and felt like the current way is sufficient for the time being and not worth introducing a new prop on DashboardLayout
