I have a suggestion about the Quick Add (search function) in Balsamiq
Mockups.
The search results I get today is a drop down which dosent tell me
anything (or at least much) about the visual attributes of the object
Im about to select. The visual attributes are whats important to me
when selecting an object.

Would it not instead be great if this Quick Add search field worked as
a filter on the UI Library Element?!

I havent given this a lot of though but here is some potential issues
(and solutions).

- Would it mess up the interaction if the UI Library is not shown?
Answer: Maby not, since it could become visible (ontop of scen) when
the user starts to write. And removed when the object has been draged
to the scene.
And if a user has set the UI Library always to be shown then all the
UI elements will return after a filtering and a selection (draged to
scene) of an object.

What ya think? :)
