I'm just wondering if the CrowdRender panel is supposed to show up even if you don't have CrowdRender selected in the Render Engine dropdown. Is there a reason for that?

I was mislead by it at first, not knowing there was an additional item in the Engine dropdown and thinking I could use CrowdRender from my Render Engine of choice, which I think used to be the way in older versions. Now I know that you first have to chose CrowdRender as an Engine and then pick Cycles or Eevee from inside the CrowdRender panel, but shouldn't that panel only appear when you pick CrowdRender in the dropdown?
