Re: Premiere Pro's #1 missing feature

Well, I'm sure many film editors saw NLEs as more of a gimmick when they were first introduced.   Sooner or later,  touch surface controls will be here.  It's a logical progression and simply unavoidable, IMO (especially if you widen your scope and think about how touch surface controls could benefit other Adobe programs  such as Photoshop and Illustrator).  For our sake, I'd rather Adobe facilitate the work of third party developers now rather than later, since this will give them more time to develop truly useful apps (as opposed to just gimmicks).  The beauty of it is that once Adobe puts the infrastructure in place for all of their relevant programs, they can sit back and relax as other entrepreneurial developpers do the rest of the work.  To see the potential value of touch surface controls, you have to think outside the box.
