The media browser is great for previewing your media before using them. but for sound designers who have thousands of files, hearing all of them to find the best sound is time-consuming and hard! most of these files are named and tagged, so adding a search field in the media browser will help find the desired SFX way much faster, also sometimes these sounds are short and sometimes they are very long with a lot of silence gaps, so adding a seek control and a preview of the waveform will help make browsing faster and more efficient.

In Cubase there is a media browser in which you visually see a track and you can skip quickly to the part you want to preview, and select with in and out-points what you drag to the multitrack. Sometimes out of a 4 minute song, I want to use a few seconds, in Audition I don't find better then to drag the whole song on an empty track in the multitrack editor, making the selection there in solo mode, and then dragging my selection to where I need it....

I whole-heartedly second this feature request! Especially the SEARCH function, the cherry on top would be meta data search.
