Nodes can now have sections, and each socket can belong to a section. These only affect how the node is displayed. In the Node Editor, the node first shows all sockets without a section as usual, and following that the sections are shown. Each section can be expanded or collapsed, hiding the sockets inside. Node links are still drawn if the socket they're going to is invisible - in that case, they'll be going to the section header instead. However, dragging them or connecting a link to a hidden socket via dragging is not possible. Node Groups can also have sections defined by the user, which are reflected in their group input/output and in the group nodes that use them. Note that the code for hidden nodes is still missing, I'm not sure yet how to handle this there. Also, we might eventually support drawing node properties (such as SSS type for the principled BSDF) inside a section. Similarly, especially for custom groups it might be nice to support nested sections.
