Hiding an attachment in a linked model

I'm working on a structural model that has an architectural model linked as a background. The architectural model itself has several linked models, one of which is from an equipment supplier and the link is set to "attachment". Due to this, I cannot hide it within my own model. Both my structural model and the arch model are in BIM360. My work around has been to save a local copy of the arch model, changing the problem link from "attachment" to "overlay", then linking that local arch model into my model. This means I have to repeat this process with every arch update rather than automatically getting updates from the BIM360 model. I've sent an email to the architect asking if that linked model can be changed from attachment to overlay, but I'm wondering if there is a better solution than this.
