'Schematic design blocks' and 'Multichannel tool' interaction

Lots of interesting new stuff is popping-up in the nightlies these days.

‘Schematic design blocks’ is an interesting new introduction, at the moment limited to the schematic world. The logical evolution i think will be to extend toward ‘PCB design block libraries’.

Does anyone know if we can expect that to happen in the future releases?
maybe the Multichannel tool is part of that strategy?

Multichannel tool is just a smarter (topology-aware) copy/paste. Design blocks (once they’ll happen on the PCB side) will be more like “footprints with other footprints/tracks/etc inside”.
