How can we get details for master symbol? I have symbol instance which might or might not have overrides but I need to get all details (entire layers structure) for the symbol master of the instance.
In general it will be great to have ability to enumerate master symbols and other shared entities.

How do we upvote here?
I would totally need this feature.
@demianborba FYI ^^^
Thanks for flagging Kerri.
Hi @gdreyv, can you please describe the workflows you’re trying to unlock in more details?
Hi @demianborba ,
as long as @gdreyv is not replying I would like to describe my use case.
I am working on a new plugin called Xray ("Design Debugger). We have talked about it last December.
The user can scan his document and get information about components. Organised by masters and instances and also grouped by component. This is what you can see in the screenshot.
Now what I want to do:
The solution would be to be able to collect information about the components in the assets panel. The same way that I can get information for colors and character styles.
So this but with components: assets · Adobe XD Plugin Reference

Thanks @plugisto Feedback taken.
I have another Use Case:
Even though components serve the purpose of centralizing information and not copying them,
there can alwalys be properties in components that are redundant. For instance i would like to implement a glöbal property value (e.g. text) search and replace tool that has the following options:
For that i do not want to be forced to place all Component Masters on the Artboard
From another point of view: If you provide iterators over Color and Character Style, why not Component as well?
