I feel like the current paradigm of having to go to the top menu Animation>Apply Gesture options, and then pick out the left/right/both every time you want to use a specific hand pose is a clunky way of doing it.

Here are a couple of proposals that are less clunky to me:

1. I think it would be easy to make it so you can drag a gesture from the content library to an avatar's specific hand. As in, for gesture assets specifically, the hoverbox goes yellow only for the avatar's hand regions, as opposed to the whole.
2. Even just adding in a right click option in the content library just for gesture assets, like

Apply gesture to> Right/Left/Both
