Automatically make gradients by just selecting two or more colours.
Create a default gradient of two or more colours just by selecting them on the artwork or on the swatches panel without having to copy and paste the color codes separately.

Absolutely Egor, and actually there is space for it to be a bit more user friendly. :)

Joreld, you are welcome. It does not mean Ai should not have it by default :)

Thanks a lot, Egor, the Illy grad does exactly what I had in mind. Will definitely use that!

There are some external script solutions that can help you to do what you want:
1. https://github.com/mhulse/illy-grad — will create a gradient from multiple selected swathes in the panel
2.https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/75097/how-to-repeat-a-gradient-multiple-times-in-illustrator-and-photoshop — there are two different solutions in comments with slightly different functionality that use colors of on-canvas objects

nice. or it could let us make gradients from colors of selected shapes on the art board.
I have just posted same request for gradients. -

It would be nice to select two or more swatches in the Swatches panel and then go to the Gradient panel and click an option to Apply Selected Swatches To Gradient Slider.
