Sure, but when it comes time to put your final project together, wouldn’t having your compound clips/”sequences” readily available in one smart collection be easier and more efficient?
Say I’ve edited scenes 1 through 12 of my short film. I’m ready to put the whole thing together and export it. I make a new project, and then just drop sequences 1-12 onto the primary storyline and I’m done. No copy and pasting back and forth between multiple projects.

Compound clips. Work on it like its a sequence, make it a compound clip. The CC will go to the media browser just like any other clip. When you’re ready to put them all together, just populate your new project with the CCs. To keep them organized, make a smart collection designated by clip type. (Compound clip).

The project consists pretty much entirely of multicam clips. No compound clips, though.
There is nothing beyond the last clip.
“END GRAPHIC WITH CTA” is listed at the bottom of the timeline index and “END GRAPHIC WITH CTA” is the last clip in the timeline.
If it were just something randomly out there (or a compound clip throwing things off), the timing difference would be consistent. However, like I mentioned, it’s different pretty much every time I zoom to fit.

It may sound weird, but try closing the inspector window. I heard that the other day and I’ll be damned if it doesn’t seen to doped things up.

Hold L and K at the same time.

Select the clips in the timeline index pane.

Lots of little things, for me:
White point color picker in the color correction options.
Center zoom to playhead (along with scrolling timeline).
The ability to pick a noise sample from an audio track for noise reduction, the way Audition does, and the way Soundtrack Pro used to do. If you’re not going to give us STP, Apple, then at least give us a lot more of its functions. (Or at least an easy way to round trip to Logic … although the powers that be at my job decided to put Pro Tools on my machine with FCPX instead of an accompanying Apple product, but I digress …)
In Premiere Pro, and in FCP 7, you can bring up your audio waveforms in their own window, fullscreen is you want, and edit to 1/1000th of a frame accuracy. I like that. I’d like to have that in FCPX.
A dedicated Roll Edit tool. I’m really not fond of the Trim tool that changes between ripple, roll, and selection depending on where your cursor happens to be in on the clip. If I want to roll, I want a roll tool. Simple.

Definitely noisy when dimmed part way. Either full power or all the way down and you’re fine – Anywhere in between and I can pick up a high-pitched whine in a lavaliere mic from about 5 feet away.

Lower the opacity of the top video track to desired level.
Done.

Wow. I posted that nearly a year and a half ago re: CS6. Has this still not been fixed in CC?
(I’ve been away from Premiere for a while and haven’t been on it much again until recently).
