I like the new Creative Cloud Libraries panel, and think in time it will prove itself useful. But it seems like there are a lot of use cases that haven't quite been ironed out. For example, it doesn't appear that you can directly use a color swatch from the library as a gradient stop, either by double clicking the stop or by dragging the swatch to the gradient. Likewise, if I select some characters in a text area, I cannot apply a color swatch from the Libraries panel. In both cases I'm having to create an object, assign the swatch, create a "real" color swatch from the object, and use that instead. Can I request these features in a future update to Illustrator? (Or if it's possible now, and I'm just being dense, please enlighten me!)
