Hi folks. 
I have been spending more time color-correcting on the Resolve.
Because I have been running a Davinci 2K comparisons are inevitable.
I am building a wish list of operational items to bring to Davinci that would help speed things up while color-correcting so I ask you all this:
What are some COLOR-CORRECTING improvements you would like to see incorporated into this machine?
(Although this system does conforms, can utilize plug-ins, etc. I am focusing on the actual final COLOR-CORRECTING part of the machine.)
This post will no doubt initiate threads comparing other software color-correctors to the Resolve, software to hardware systems, solo “finishing” style throughput to separate conform/colorist talent, Hybrid to diesel, etc. 
This is all good but I still hope to extract your opinion on the exact question at hand.
Here are a few of mine to start things off:
1.	Make the 4th trackball operate all mouse functions
2.	Allow user to build macros for task shortcuts
3.	Allow user-definable desk displays (like 2K)
4.	Allow node map display to stay open on the screen while still using the gallery, so an individual node can be parked while you are working and quickly dragged onto current scene.
5.	Allow color-value ripple over scenes (I am told this is coming.)
6.	Add 6-vector panel (I am told this is coming.)
7.	Allow scene/dissolve marking/gallery save and playback while the machine transport is moving. (this may be a product of not running a hardware system but I miss it.)
8.	Allow more than one track mode, or allow each node in the track mode to have it’s own separate mark points so one could be used to modify certain scenes in the list and some can be used for the whole list.

Thanks in advance and good luck.
