[UI Builder] Documents from Package folders do not show up in UI Document Project list and can't be used

Package: UI Builder

-

Reproduction steps:
1. Open project attached in "UIToolkitPackage.zip"
2. Double click on "TestDocument" in the project window
3. In the Library section of the UI builder window select "Project"
4. Inspect the Assets

Expected result: DocumentInPackages.uxml that is located in "Packages/Local Package/" is visible
Actual result: DocumentInPackages.uxml is not visible and cannot be used

Reproducible with: 1.0.0-preview.14 (2019.4.25f1, 2020.3.5f1), 2021.1.4f1, 2021.2.0a14
Could not test with 2018.4.34f1 because UI Builder is not available

  1. Resolution Note:

    At the moment, we do not support sharing/reusing C# elements or uxml documents from packages inside the UI Builder.

    We have an option to "Show Package Files", which only works on mutable, local packages, which enables package owners to author their UI documents from the UI Builder. This is not intended to be used for sharing/reusing UI assets from packages. The description of the option is not clear on what it is doing and we will update to make it clearer.

    Closing this as "By design" because this is not a feature we currently support. This is however a feature that will be added as soon as possible.
