Yeah, I'm really glad to have that area covered now, it was previously a pretty big missing thing.

It's kind of the culmination of some UI concepts that were prototyped for the View > CPlane command much earlier on in v2.

Someday I'd like to have that, but not for v2! :)

But you should actually be able to set up some libraries just by making your "component" to be in its own 3DM file positioned around the origin, aligned to the world z axis.

Then you can use the new "ImportPart" command (right-click on File > Import) to bring it in and place its orientation pretty much like a component.

The main part that is missing from that is that it won't be an actual "instance" that would get updated when you alter its definition. But as far as assembling things together from library building blocks, it should work pretty well for that type of thing.

Let me know if you want more details on how to set it up. But it's pretty straight forward...
