Change default preview for materials

This would be very handy since the asset library has the preview from the preview icon. Screenshot 2022-12-29 101654.png

Asset Snapshot addon is the best tool for making snapshots. Hopefully they will be wise enough to copy it's features directly into Blender.

The UVs of the default sphere in this preview area are very strange and don't give an accurate representation of the material if you are using strong adaptive subdivision and displacement in the shader. It's useless to me.

I think the sphere is more useful as a material preview for most cases. So, it's best if the user could select which one is the default. How?.
