Quickly see and swap local document assets and CC library assets, individually and in bulk

I would LOVE a way to distinguish if a component is a document asset vs a linked CC library asset and swap them quickly, both individually and in bulk. Let me explain my use case for you: I had a designer create some components and screens in a separate file (bc the cloud file kept crashing) and I thought there would be an easy way to merge the files later, but turns out, I've spent HOURS fixes this. I copied/pasted the local assets from her file into the library, then individually clicked "Edit Main Component" then had to open the screens she made and copy them into my file and "replace" each asset with the library component so they would be linked to the library. I expected the naming convention to recognize it buuuttt it did not so now I have TONS of document assets and library assets and no way to clearly understand what is what in my new file. I saved ZERO TIME and am incredibly frustrated with how SLOW the library file is and just how painstakingly difficult this entire process has been. There really needs to be a better way. Designers don't always have time to design components and then link them to a file, we should be able to design in a file and copy them into a library without having to spend enormous amounts of time on this - defeats the whole purpose of "cloud files" because the cloud file crashed 1 million times, it was soooooo slow, and now going backwards is equally as painful and exhausting and frustrating and makes me want to go back to sketch!
