Well, i think it's just as useful as Darksteel Relic was in SOM block: it serves a distinct purpose and is absolutely useless outside of it. So, the use of this card is for A) Increasing your storm count.

404.2. Each graveyard is kept in a single face-up pile. A player can examine the cards in any graveyard at any time but normally can’t change their order. Additional rules applying to sanctioned tournaments may allow a player to change the order of cards in his or her graveyard.
And in the tournament rules:
3.14 Graveyard Order
In formats involving only cards from Urza’s Saga™ and later, players may change the order of their graveyard at any time. A player may not change the order of an opponent’s graveyard.
Basically, if you're not playing in a format with graveyard-order-matters cards (eg. Volrath's Shapeshifter) it doesn't matter. Fossil Find only specifically mentions the order because of Shapeshifter and stuff - the easiest way to random is to shuffle up and that screws up the order of the grave.
This is getting kinda off topic though... I really like the 0 to cast shuffle library effect though. Because that's cool. It's tech with Brainstorm (not really).

Now do something with it.
Multicolored millcards in something other than dimir.
Ummm.... free storm count increase? I can't see any scenario where I would want to play this card or open it in a pack.

ROFL.
Now though this is completely useless, one could marginally up its power while retaining the intended "near useless but not" effect.

Target permanent.
Whoa, that kills Ice Cage!
Multicolored millcards in something other than dimir.
Make that "Target any number of target permanents" and it's a narrow hoser for Illusion creatures.
That honestly sounds like it's a bit too good considering what the OP had in mind.
Phuture2k, meet Gitaxian Probe.Gitaxian Probe, phuture2k.
This would be the 'standard' for this kind of card.

You know, I have thought of that numerous times, it just seems too powerful.
It'd have to be something like this:

Draw a card, then add 1 to your mana pool.

Shuffle your library.
Or

Reorder your graveyard.
In every format post-Urza's, you can do that without a spell, lol.
