Move the "Merge Live Paint" button from the control panel to the Quick Actions section of the Properties panel
When you want to merge a new path with an existing live paint group and you select new shapes and the live paint group, the option to merge those shapes with the live paint group does not appear in the quick action section of the properties panel. I understand people may not want to do this but the new and more responsive context options that appear in quick actions are quite useful. I've steadily relied less and less on the control panel and now resort to the properties panel save this one function. Moving it down to quick actions when making these kinds of selections seems easy, many actions such as expand and group also appear there. For live paint groups this command is a must.

Better copy this one.
Yes, this is one more duplicate, I know... But both panels need it. And context menu needs one too.
