Please... hierarchy view of components in Assets/Components left panel

After years struggling with XD bad usability, today just realized one of my first bottlenecks managing assets/components in large scale projects: the lack of a hierarchized views of the components (as Sketch already have)

Simply, after create a very complex Component, full of other components inside, I end seeing all these components rendered in a messing list of hundreds of small thumbnails. Absolutely impossible to find anything... except for waste hours reading their cryptic names automatically generated after a stressed working day.

Simply… why not render the embedded components inside the container in the Assets panel? Please, don’t tell me to use the Layer Panel… there are thousands of items, and we still have to jump back and forth between panels, as there isn’t any way to make panels undockable and have it all visible side by side (another of those absurd timewasters)
