Auto-Layout for Component Variant Sets

In my journey to stay more organized, I’ve found it beneficial to start setting my Component variant groups to Auto-Layout. Keeps things nice and orderly in my design file. I’m wondering if Figma could get away with automatically applying auto-layout settings to component groupings. That way we don’t have to click within each grouping and add the Gap + Horizontal/Vertical Padding.

    I would love it if there was a global setting ‘All new component variant groups use auto layout’ or similar and then you can set what the defaults for these are. 99% of the time I am manually adding ‘auto-layout’, ‘fixed width’ on the component group and then ‘fill’ on all variants inside. I am manually doing this with every single component variant group I make.
