Resolve > Premiere Pro Dailies Workflow - Lack of Metadata

I typically work in a Resolve > Media Composer dailies pipeline, and have recently begun building a Resolve > PP pipeline, and I'm seeing a lack of compatible metadata that can be transferred around. I'm baffled that PP can't simply take an ALE and ingest all columns. If the functionality is there to create new columns within PP, it shouldn't be a stretch to automatically create those from an ALE. At the end of the day, editorial and the NLE become the database, so it needs to be capable of housing anything we throw at it. 

 

For reference, in the 2022 version of Best Practices & Workflow Guide, on page 32, it explains all of the fields PP supports from an ALE, and it's only 28 items. It lacks Lens info, camera roll, tilt, audio track naming info, source resolution info, etc.  This info is used quite a bit, and would be the source info for most VFX workflows.

 

This could easily be as simple as create the columns on import. It could even be more complex where a window asks if you want all columns added, or to select the ones you want. 

 

Could this be a feature or maybe an extension?
