I really enjoy when there is the choice to have a companion do something that's more appropriate for their character than the PC, such as allowing Astarion or Gale to put the gem in the Necromancy of Thay book. I recorded that result (below) and it seems fairly similar to the PC's version of the scene if they choose to continue looking at the book themselves. Problem is, there is rather different and unique animation/dialogue for the Companion already! If the PC unlock the book themself but gives it to Gale or Astarion, the cutscene progresses differently though with the same general outcome (for Astarion anyway, from what I can tell).
Combining the two versions of the scene would be ideal and I hope that's what is ultimately done. Does anyone else have related experience with scenes like this? I'm fairly sure that the Lady of Pain worshiper in the goblin camp responds differently to Astarion than to the PC, but I'm not sure.
