Grouping for Materials?

Hi all,

Just wondering if its possible for the materials section of Studio to have the same sort of grouping system as objects do in the scene tree. I have had a few jobs with complex scenes that have become a bit hard to handle/manage, the ability to keep everything as tidy as possible would be a huge time (and stress!) saver.

Say you are creating an exterior arch vis scene, you have a house model, a car model and some plant models. It would be great to be able to create a group in the materials section specifically for the car model materials (which may have 5-10 materials), a group for the house materials (again may have 5-10 materials) and a group for the plants materials etc. A small example, but, the amount of materials used in a scene can build up quite quickly and having a grouping system for them could really help manage this.

Just thinking this could really help the (already excellent) UI along,

Cheers
Andrew.
