A very quick mockup for quick access buttons

One idea I've had is to use some of the empty vertical space on the right of
the dialog for some quick access buttons. See attachment for a 2 minute mockup
of how this might look. The labels I've used in the mockup are not necessarily
the right ones, they're just ones I quickly thought of.

Either the buttons could be set to allow one-click access to certain templates,
or to be drop-down lists of similar related ones. Possibly the two could be
combined - click to get the top item in the list, or click and hold for a
moment to open the drop down for short list (almost certainly no more than 10,
probably less than that) of similar ones.

Selecting any of these would have the same effect as typing the name into the
search field, selecting it, and clicking to add the template.

A second idea would be to change the transclusion editor button from a simple
button to a combined button/drop down as I described above. Here you could only
have a single list but it could be longer. Selecting a template from this list
would load the transclusion editor with that template preloaded into it.

Some way of customising either/both lists (beyond recently used) would be
useful too.
