The original file "Cool Drum Loop 120bpm" has now been destructively edited to be 140bpm and now the original file isn't 120bpm anymore. Kind of a problem.
i told, the original is kept, just like if we do manually. So this is not an issue.

It's much better to leave this to the sampler, not Reaper destructively editing files or making real-time copies of every file dragged from the media explorer.
Ableton simpler/sampler is not usable in reaper. Directwave (i don't remember having time streatch, maybe been upgraded meanwhile) but does not work on MAC (older versions).
All the others are like 250 Euros beasts, which even for free i don't like them. I like simple samplers.

At the end of the day then this should be an optional:
"importing samples to plugins from media explorer do not apply timestreatch"
or
"keep timestreatch when importing to a plugin"
