Allow a Reference Pattern when referencing a Shared Data Feature

[jwagh]

It would be great if we can reference patten an element that is within a shared data feature (copy Geometry, Merge...).

For instance, if we merge in a part that has a pattern of bosses, we can use reference patten as long as we reference those bosses. Don't just do this for Merge, but for Copy Geometry, shrinkwrap... etc.

I am often missing this functionality to create a pattern by reference to points, that were copied by copied geometry. You are not able to add each child of a pattern into the collection.

I also would suggest it for mirrored Parts/Assemblies.
Mirror a part fully dependent via geometry and you will have to apply each screw manually because there is no referenceable pattern to use.
