[LAUNCHED] Visible outline for Slots

Hi all,

First of all, the new Slots feature is truly awesome, I can’t wait to see how in depth we’re going to rework the components of our design system with it. 

I’d like to suggest a small improvement regarding their visibility. When a slot has no fill or background, it’s basically invisible on the canvas unless you hover over it. This makes it harder to understand the structure of a component at a glance, especially for our designers who are going to consume the components we provide.

It would be really helpful if slots could have a dashed outline, similar to the dotted boundary used for variant groups in component sets, so empty slots remain visible without adding a background.

I tried looking through the settings to see if this was already an option. If it exists and I simply missed it, my bad. But if not, having something like a default or optional slot outline could make components much easier to read and work with.

@flav ​@elso thank you for the suggestion!

We have just released sharper controls for every slot, including  the display of an empty slot by default to make it visible on the canvas.

Let us know what you think.
