Please add some basic file management functionality into the Project Pane. It does not have to be full ArcCatalog replacement, but some *basic file management functionality* would be helpful, like the ability to 

- copy an item (a file geodatabase, a toolbox, a script tool, a layer file) from outside folder into current project - maybe a *Add To Current Project* context menu item?

 

By the way there should be a separate category for ArcGIS Pro ideas than just ArcGIS Desktop.

Hello Dean,

This functionality is already offered in ArcGIS Pro.  In the Catalog pane, there is a Computer tab which allows you to browse items on your computer, and add them to the current project:

You can also do this in the Computer place in the Catalog view.

Another easy way to add an item (for example a folder) on your file system to the current project is to simply drag and drop it to the Catalog pane or Catalog view. 

Thank you for your feedback.
