Easier way to find object in large file with small blue bar above layers panel
Working in larger files, it's hard to find the exact object selected. What if there was a blue bar that highlighted which way to scroll? (top of the layers panel scroll up, bottom of the layers panel scroll down) to find it rather than looking for the blue box next to the object's layer? When you click on the blue bar, it takes you directly to the selected object. If multiple objects are selected, you could keep clicking the button to go to the next object down the list.
I've attached a photoshoped mockup of what I am trying to request, thoughts??

I think there should be no need to click this button in all for the most of the cases. Therefore a request to make the Locate function automatic: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/39104935-automatic-locate-object

Prepare to have your mind blown.
Click to select an object in your artboard.
Next, click the magnifying glass icon/button at the bottom of the layers pallet.******
That said, the 'click again to go to the next selected object' is a good idea that is not currently implemented.
