Library with drag and drop functionality

I would like to see a drag and drop library in the property panel for materials, models and  basic node setups.
By dragging the library elements into the viewport it will append the element from the external library into the current blend file.Thumbnails would be preferable for fast visualisation of the library context.

Hasn't this been added in Blender 2.77 ? Though when I drag & drop a blend fil in the 3D view, it opens it instead of importing it.

This proposal is pretty vague, but asks for quite a lot. It would be far more clear if you could create mock-ups that show what such a library would look like in the Blender interface and how a person would use it.

I have inserted a mock-up.
