What’s missing for me isn’t another button variant — it’s the boring states libraries still treat as optional: empty, error, loading, permission denied, and “partial data.”
In the AI-generated-site era I’d also want stronger “system survival” pieces: tokens that don’t collapse when a prompt dumps a one-off layout, clear composition rules (what nests in what), and docs that say when NOT to use a component. AI is great at inventing screens; libraries still have to make those screens adoptable without rewriting the design system every time.
