ie. can only be accessed via the Go menu with 'Go To Folder...'.
Personally I like the new concept of OS X avoiding confusion of common library and user library.
if the problem is access to the presets on user library,
we can just reach that location using the context menu from live browser on plugin preset
ps: by the way, do we really need to see the .aupreset extension visible on live browser ?
i understand it in the user library, but not when listed under the plugin
