Latest Beta Build 29.1.0.79 now allows to add gradient and pattern swatches into color groups. Simple as that. I am personally amazed it just works.
Please try it yourself in the latest Beta and see if it works for you as well. My congratulations, everybody. Vote more!

Still an ongoing issue and seems to be getting worse; currently on AI version 26.1.
I started noticing the issue a few months ago with slow saves and it seems to be getting worse with the files now crashing out while trying to save and if it doesn't crash it takes almost 5mins to save a file. I finally tried saving a copy without PDF compatible selected and it saved instantly and every continued save saves instantly on that file. And if I turn PDF compatible back on it once again takes forever and the percentage actually will jump around a bit with it going up to 10% then back down to 3%.
Keeping PDF compatible off is not really an option for me as our Document Control needs to be able to view the AI files before they are released and sent to the printers.

7 years later and still no ability to group patterns with the color swatches.
This is something that would be extremely helpful for my workflow and I'm sure for many others. Part of my job requires making simplified illustrations of our products that use a single color but need a different color depending on where they are used so I'll have multiple versions of the same illustration in one file just with different colors. There are times where I use patterns to help quickly show areas that have velcro or differentiations of material. It would be great if I could group these patterns with their respective color group to help keep the swatch panel organized and make it easier to find which pattern I should be working with; especially if the colors are similar.
