Better Asset Panel (Search through multiple libraries, Thumbnail too small)

I manage Design System in my company, I often test different libraries published by different team.

One thing I find really annoying about the Asset Panel is that it shows all the results from all libraries when you search, without grouping them by libraries. For example, if I search for Button - it shows me all buttons from all 5 libraries I enabled in the file. It’s really hard to differentiate between them:

The preview image is also a little bit too small in my opinion, if it’s bigger I’d be able to tell the difference easier.

I think Sketch is bad at a lot of things but they did the Components Panel right. It’s easy to navigate through libraries, the panel is a separate window - make the preview bigger and easier to view. You can pin it wherever you want and drag whatever you need in your file.

Maybe we can have something like that?
