Hide active collection in a single viewport

It would be helpfull if a collections could be hidden in a specific viewport.

When i edit or do camera work, things can get in the way, it be nice if the view menu had an option which would only work for that viewpanel to hide specific collections.

For example you have house and people. You want to move a camera from top-view to follow the people As its a top view see the roof-tiles of the house, thats unwanted... For this view i would like to hide the house collection, in the top view. But In another 3dview panel you want to see the people in the house, as the render would be.

Its just an example, it would be nice if the 3dview pannel in its view menu had an option to disable certain collections. It might also speed up the screen draw refresh time. So one could better work on large blend files, ea most of the time i dont need to see it all, but especially when doing camera work its something i miss.

As for the userinterface, it could be a tree like structure containing only colection items. Or maybe right click spacebar and have a command hide collection for this screen

Doesn't it already exist under View > Collections > Local Collections ?
