any way to export or share the Tagged Swatches between files?

I'm trying to export (save) the color panel with Tagged Swatches. For some mysterious reasons, it only saves the normal swatches, but not the Tagged Swatches. Obviously we are in the 21st century, and I am a bit baffled - what's the point of having Tagged Swatches, if you can't reuse them in another file?!

thanks.

    Here are a few tricks that might help:

    1. You could copy an item that contains a tagged swatch and paste it into another document. Then it will add that tagged swatch to that file.
    2. You could add an animation to your CC Libraries. That animation will include the tagged swatches.
    3. You could make a FLA that has nothing else in it besides your tagged swatches and save it as a template. The tagged swatches will be included in each new document using that template.
