Make it easier to check in and check out
I would recommend sticking with clicking Files tab in the ribbon then selecting a document, so Check In/Out/Discard in a click away.
Anyway, it's going to a New UI (OneDrive view) experience, which can be changed dramatically in near future.
It's definitely possible to modify callout behavior by adding custom action or inject redundant quick buttons in DocumentLibraryQCB area with custom script if it worth it.
I agree, having just had to go looking for the check-in option. It's not obvious which means that documents are more likely than before to remain checked out. We use a script now across the on-prem farm to identify what is checked out, how to do that easily in SPO?
There is a possibility to get all checked out documents with the use of `CheckoutUser` field filtering or search.
E.g. it can be achieved with such actions described in the article. The store also can be helpful.
