There's a potential gotcha in here where, by default, visualizations created from a Dashoard are not added to the library. Is the Lens save modal (with option to 'Add to library') or library concept covered elsewhere?

The main thing I'm attempting to cover is where you try to 'Add from library' (open the flyout in Dashboard) and you can't find the visualization because it was never added to the library.

Ah ok, thanks for pointing that out. The library concept is global in nature 🤔 ... also, it's most troublesome when you click the 'Add from library' button when in Dashboard edit mode. Is there a place in the docs for this particular interaction? What I'm ultimately driving toward is a note of sorts that says "Not seeing your x? Make sure it was added to the visualization library. You can do this by..."

The library concept is global in nature, but with the dashboard-first initiative, the Visualize content was removed and incorporated into the Dashboard section.

I have an idea! I'm going to put a Visualize Library section in the Kibana concepts section. This is where we are housing our global Kibana concepts.
