Copy symbol from a library into new Device I'm creating?

I'd like to re-use a symbol from a different device in a different library for a device I'm creating, but I can't figure out how to copy it or access it. When I go to add a symbol to my device, I'm only presented with symbols in my library. It seems Eagle has ways to let you copy devices from one library to another, but I can't figure out how to do that in Fusion 360.

Oh. I just stumbled upon it. When you create a new symbol, you get a dialog asking for the symbol name. In that is an import button that leads you to the part browser.

 

Better would be for the Add Symbol toolbar item to give you access to the full set of libraries.
