Huge Quality of Life Support Gem Suggestion

Hello GGG

I've always loved that when I mouse over a support gem in POE-1, I can see at a glance which skills it supports. They brought this over to POE-2 as well, great.

However, there is a problem. In POE-1 you find or vendor the gems, in POE-2, you cut them from 'raw' uncut gems. This is not much of an issue if you only ever look at the recommended supports, but as everyone who has played for a while can see - there are far more viable options if you look beyond the recommended 3.

When you look at the recommended 3 you automatically know they will work with that skill. Moreover, the gem is greyed out when you are already utilising it. Fantastic. However, look at the broader list of Support Gems and all that quality of life is gone. You can't tell if you are already using something and you do not get the tooltip telling you if that support CAN be used with the skill you are contemplating.

Not a problem in POE-1, obviously since you find them externally, but a big problem in POE-2, since you can't check the gem out in your inventory until after you've committed to crafting it.

My suggestion should be obvious at this point, when considering a new support gem have the 'currently-used-in-your-build' indicator work throughout the gem crafting interface AND have the tooltip which tells you which skills that gem supports and which it will not.

This would be enormously helpful.

Thanks for listening and Merry Christmas.
