You can set an account to 'placeholder' after you have transactions in it. This will prevent you from double-click in the accounts view to open it, you'll have to right-click to view it's contents.

But, it will also remove it from your pick-lists in the registries.

I have a few accounts that I will use very occasionally, but not normally.
Can I set them to read-only, so I just mark them writable when I need to?
This will avoid transactions accidentally getting put in there. I
discovered something in the Travel account the other day that should not
have been there. I will probably use that account once per year, so it
makes sense to stop things accidentally going into them.

I  believe setting them to placeholder accounts will achieve the same
effect, but I'm not sure.
