Hi, long time Photoshop user, first time suggesting a feature. Apologies if this is an old request. I'd like to propose a feature within the Brushes panel, for sorting and filtering brush types in Brush Presets. I often get lost in the Brushes panel when searching for specialty brushes.  For instance, what if I want to see only Mixer Brush presets? Currently these are spread across many of the add-on brush preset folders, downloaded from Get More Brushes. Like in Fonts, where you can sort and filter by font classes; serif, sans serif, script, etc. Or in Layer type filtering. This could work well for brushes, with different categories of presets. This would improve efficiency in locating brushes for particular tool types and workflows. It could be expanded to sort and filter by brushes with certain characteristics, such as presssure sensitity. Thank you from a grateful Adobe user and instructor.

@Jonathan27318746ntxt That's an excellent feature suggestion! Sorting and filtering brushes by tool type (like Mixer Brush, Eraser, Pencil, etc.) or characteristics (like Pressure Sensitivity) would save countless hours of manual organization and is a much-needed improvement for complex brush libraries!
