Introducing SharePoint design ideas

hi grant_jenkins, thanks for your comment. I hear you on this potentially going against your branding requirements, and I'm sorry for any confusion this feature may be causing. 

On our end, we are currently collaborating with our brand center feature team to offer a delightful integration in future releases.  In response to the feedback and great ideas mentioned in this forum, are also currently investigating ways to use your org assets instead of stock content in image suggestions. Would this help design ideas fall within your branding standards? Are there any additional things we could do make sure we are aligning with your site styling?

As for discard changes, I've forwarded your feedback to the appropriate parties on our coauthoring team. You aren't the first to comment on this, and I know they are taking the feedback to heart.
