This is where my "push" library idea come in.  A library should work both 
ways.  While looking at any file, you should be able to save a portion  to a 
specified library file (one for  objects, texture, material, whatever....) so 
you always know where it is. 

You would define default .blends for each type of datablock in the UserPrefs 
(like you define default locations for plugins).  "From Library" would be 
under just about every instance of "Add New".  It would start you off in your 
default .blend file for that type of datablock.  The select window would have 
the ".." option to go up a level to browse to other files.

Now if we had some way to organize heirarchies inside .blend files, so we 
could group all the "metalic" materials etc. 

If I only had about 6 more hours a day....
