That the status menus happen to be implemented using a single indicator
applet is engineering trivia. That fact is not exposed to users in any
way.

That explains both why it's okay for one element to show many unrelated
things (we don't advertise that it's one element) and why it shouldn't
have centralized preferences (it's irrelevant that it's one element).

Instead, settings for individual menus belong with the rest of the
settings for those features, which can be opened either from the menu
itself or from System Settings. For example, you can toggle the
visibility of the clock in the Time & Date settings, and the battery
menu in the Power settings. You should similarly be able to toggle the
visibility of the sound menu in the Sound settings, Bluetooth menu in
the Bluetooth settings, and so on. There are other bug reports covering
those.
