Feature Request - Updating existing MOGRTs in Shared Libraries

I recently posted a question asking about this, because I felt it was a feature I had been misusing. I hadn't expected to learn that it was simply not a feature at all.

As part of my job, I create MOGRTs for my video team. I also update and maintain them and add new features as the team requests them.  I wanted to start making use of Adobe Libraries. My thought was that I could make changes to a MOGRT and it would automatically update the MOGRTs in the Shared Library so that when my team member's open Premiere Pro, they'd automatically get the update. What I found was that instead of updating the MOGRT in the Library, it created a new MOGRT file in the Library. Now my team has a library with multiple versions of the same MOGRT in it, all with the same name, and it's very confusing as to which is the most up to date version. This is not ideal.

What I propose is allowing for the ability to replace existing MOGRTs within a Shared Adobe Library. Perhaps this could show up as a new checkbox in the export dialogue for replacing an existing MOGRT of the same name or to save as a copy (and append something to the MOGRT name to identify it as a different file in the Library).

This feature would certainly help my team out quite a bit, and I'm sure others too.
