Family Sharing enables you to play games from other family members' libraries, even if they are online playing another game.

This is a great improvement to this feature. It's refreshing when these type of convenience features are considered and implemented.

Just wished it worked across countries/steam store regions

I'm really glad to see this. My husband and I game together a lot so we will still buy individual copies of a lot of games. Theres some games though that I'd like to try but never will because I won't buy them, and his library is basically never available when I want it to be. Happy that we can now share some of those really weird one off games!
