Comment:

 There is a screen option for this in the old admin interface (if we still
 haven't, we should really add a big warning there about using the
 customizer so that you can live preview, among other things).

 These screen options are intentionally excluded from the customizer, due
 to the generally poor user experience of screen options. The nav menu item
 options were brought over as a prototype for "panel options" in the
 ccustomizer, although this pattern has not been used elsewhere in core. It
 was determined that options would not be necessary for taxonomies and post
 types, as the proper use of `show_in_nav_menus` when registering the post
 type or taxonomy would automatically handle this without individual user
 interaction (decisions, not options).

 Unless there is a compelling argument to revisit that design approach, I
 suggest closing this ticket. I haven't seen any other suggestions for this
 yet, and the feature is several years old now.
