But I thinks it's safe to say that at least two of your 11 will be in the next update.
Great!
Second, keep in mind that our feature backlog is full of hundreds of ideas. And if you were to ask 10 different users for their Top 11 list, they wouldn't match yours. So let's say we covered all 11 of your requests. Then someone else, perhaps MagistrateCoyote, would come along with her list of 11 requests that we haven't met yet. In other words, there's no shortage of perfectly valid enhancements we could make, and nobody's going to get everything they want in a given release. For that matter, you might come back after the next update with another list of "what abouts..."
The best way you can influence which features get prioritized for a given release is to submit formal feature requests.
I hear you -- and I've been submitting these requests for years now, literally... It's just frustrating when I see you obviously spent thousands of man-hours on new features, when I know some of my requests could be coded in a couple of hours -- and they're mainly about achieving parity with what, say, Avid & FCP have had for 10-15 years.
AND, some of those requests are aspects of the UI that are completely inconsistent with not only the entire CC suite, but UI practice in general (like having pasted items be selected, or the shortcuts for kerning.) They are clearly an oversight stretching back years. And some are just plain bugs (like the scrub toggle not working.)
On the other hand, kudos to the team because MANY of the features I've requested have shown up very quickly, so thanks.
By the way, I'm not familiar with AE's Reduce Project option, but Premiere already has one called "Remove Unused" that sounds similar. You'll find it in the Edit menu.
HA! The Edit menu! Who would've thought! Thanks!
