The new Add Panel is useful but i have two issues.

The first is a UI one in clicking any of the "Add a" icons, I would expect the panel to close again.

The second is the paucity of assets:

• 8 Tables
• 16 Charts - none interactive Pie Charts
• 12 Maps

Sure, I can suggest making the add buttons toggle to the devs.
