Cloth Simulation Visual Presets (better than just text)

So I noticed there are already cloth simulation presets to pick from but it's not well made for a few reasons..

I've been using Blender for a while and only now I noticed it has these presets but they are almost kind of hidden inside their button : sdfsfsdf.png

They are also not totally clear since they have no thumbnails that represents their style to see how they are going to look.

so I can see the need for a preset dropdown for it that would show every preset with a given thumbnail like so :

It would also include extra presets like helium balloon, punctured ball, vacuum rubber and skin like preset/s ETC and basically every kind of cloth preset possible.

presets are incredibly inaccurate in blender. I tried comparing them to marvelous designer but I can't figure out what units blender uses for its settings not mentioning that there are very few compared to MD. but regardless we also need an actual unit based system. not just sliders that act more like added value if that makes sense.

Well, sure but the idea of these presets is to give a little sense of the direction you want to take your cloth to be more like, obviously it is not gonna be 100% like the thumbnail (it varies based on poly count and different shapes of objects ETC but still, they can for example also give an hint alongside each thumbnail tip to give idea about the poly count that gives the same look)

Another "add presets to x"

Thats not proper way. Blender just need real preset system in general, no only in one area.
