Now THAT is an idea I would fully support! A feature along these lines and/or Reason's block editing is the one thing I would want above all others! (I do a lot of remixing, and would be great for re-structuring)

I started a feature request a bit back where my idea was to be able to have an item on the Master Track which could be edited like a normal item: main outcome of that was the suggestion to group all items with an empty 'control' item (can be on a folder track if you like) then edit/duplicate as necessary. Seemed to do the trick when I tried it out, but once I started putting it to real-project use it proved to be unreliable. Maybe I'll revive the feature request...

It's one of the few features I 'imagined' up for myself that I thought would be useful, before I was ever aware of it existing anywhere else (and well before Reason introduced block editing!)
