Hi Figma team,

My team and I have been experimenting with slots recently. I'd like to propose a feature enhancement: when a component with properties is added via a slot, those properties should be accessible directly from the main component.

Ideally, these nested properties would surface automatically, eliminating the need to click deep into the component hierarchy to make edits.

Hi there! Our team is also using Slots and while we are really excited about the flexibility it gives, not being able to expose the properties of nested instances is proving to be a real drawback. 
 



I appreciate it at least saying ‘Modified’, but that’s not really helpful in knowing what that modification is or, more importantly, seeing the modifiable properties for the nested component (‘Interaction Destination’) in this example.
