Valve not offered in UI; works only as switch type
Valve domain newly added; YAML exposure was workaround

… can expose them using YAML as you described. The UI does not support this, I believe. Yeah, I suppose my issue report is specifically about not showing "Valve" in the domain UI. I'd be surprised if it couldn't be supported through the menu UI. Those look like standard domains. If you try to bring in an actual valve, you have to create a "template switch" that mimics the valve and then specify its type as "valve" in the yaml. It's a very round-a-bout way to specify a valve as a valve.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
