Bounding Boxes for X, Y & Scale

I read two other ideas similar, but I think it comes down to bounding boxes, ala Photoshop, with Cmd and Option changing the box points' functions (skew, etc) as in PS. Instead of clicking a layer as in PS, you click the element in the timeline, and its box appears. Including cameras.

Much more intuitive and fun to use. For CH, I think it would be more intuitive than in PS where you might have 100 layers.

Related to this, if cameras can't get a bounding box, allowing the mouse/touch controls to affect X & Y coordinates to establish keyframed shots instead of the dials would be nice for those of us not doing live performance.

Thanks.

As for the camera related ask, you can create triggerable shots using the Camera Transform behavior. Try arming the Camera Transform's Mouse & Touch Input parameter, then invoke the "Create Triggerable Shot" button. I also prefer the live mouse and touch input for manipulating the camera transformation.
