Redoing SolidWorks Symbol Library dialog

Currently, the dialog for the Symbol Library dialog is remenicient of the 1990's.  Access to the symbol library is generally through a button.

One idea to improve the symbol library interface is to create a widget that can be inserted anywhere within our user interface. 

  • The widget would know which area it appears and bring up the appropriate symbols.  For example, if the widget appears in a Dimension PropertyManager, it would provide an immediate link to symbols related to dimensions. 
  • The widget would also provide recently used symbols and saved favorites.

Does this sound like the right direction, or do you have other ideas?
