I.e., disabling all protocols in the dialog box and then enabling
selected protocols?

The answer to both questions, at present, is, alas, "you can't".

The continuation of the answer, as for many other "you can't" answers,
is "somebody may implement that in the future, as it'd probably be
useful, but, as always, it's a matter of time available to the pool of
implementors".  (If you're familiar with C and GTK+, one way to solve
the problem might be to add yourself to the pool of implementors....
