Is there an official Snackbar widget in Lollipop SDK?

Now that Lollipop SDK has dropped, I'm trying to see if there is a Snackbar widget, as specified in the Material Design spec: http://www.google.com/design/spec/components/snackbars-toasts.html#snackbars-toasts-specs

Currently, I'm using wmora's Snackbar implementation: https://github.com/wmora/snackbar

Nope, it's simple enough, like the FAB, that one could implement it themselves. Google has yet to provide the kitchen sink with Material Design.

So weird. Do they want a consistent design or not? Because giving guidelines without implementation is just asking for inconsistent design

Sliding Tabs are only a part of sample code, and TabHosts aren't really functional anymore for Material Design... so yeah.

TabHost is an abomination

Hey, glad you are using my lib! I was hoping for Google to release a widget with their latest SDK but didn't. Note that I continued the lib support at https://github.com/nispok/snackbar, its latest version is more similar to the one used in Google's Inbox app.

I just switched. Looks like you streamlined the code and rationalized the interfaces. I like it. Thanks a lot.
