    Available in 30.8.54 Beta build.

    Choose 'Auto find missing links from this folder' in the relink dialog's Replace dropdown when relinking a missing image. Illustrator scans the document and silently relinks every other missing link whose file name matches a file in the same folder, including all instances of the same image.

    Make the links panel more intelligent so you don't have to import multiple instances of the same link again and again.

    Premiere has a good system where you can select a folder and let it search automatically for the missing links. After Effects automatically searches folders and relinks files too, why can't this be applied in Illustrator too? It would save so much time.
