Be able to "Undo", when I accidentally Delete an item in the Creative Cloud Libraries panel.
Or that deleted items are transfered to Trash, where you have to Empty Trash.
Right now, accidentally deleted items are lost forever.

I can't fathom how Adobe released this library feature and allowed the deletion of something as important as a linked object with NO undo, recovery, history or archive.

This is a massive miss. I'm so thankful I tested this in a dummy document before putting anything of value into Creative Cloud Libraries.

Please fix this... If someone places a complex linked object with countless hours of work that's gone into it and discover if they accidentally delete it that there is no recourse, well that's about as bad as a user experience can be.

Even if you, minimally, threw a confirm dialog before the action was completed, it'd offer some measure of protection. Right now, one click, and POOF! That's insane.

Adding my voice here.

Adding complex items to the library has an element of risk to it.

When working on screen design I might have a lot of items in here, some of which have been removed from all current designs.

If I delete an item from the library, even if I have used the linked object in another design, I cannot recover it.

If it does exist as a linked object in a document and I try 'edit contents' it asks me to locate the (deleted) item, so all I have available is a flat graphic.

Some items in my libraries can be quite complex. It'd be great to have some kind of failsafe for this.
