Insert a mockup by reference instead of copy...

I have been doing a lot of mockups that are all using the same components over and over again. The other day I had to make a change and had to edit about 15 mockups that shared the same component.

I would love to see a feature to "Insert a Mockup" - an external mockup as a reference. Changes to the original mockup would be reflected in any mockups that use it.



I realize this is a complicated feature with many implications such as an ability to orphan the inserted mockup; handle cases where the mockup is missing or renamed; not allowing circular references, etc. This feature would be made possible by a storyboard mode or project manager feature.

Still I wonder what others think of this idea? I think know it would save a lot of time.
