Set "show duplicate frame markers" project-wide, not just on a per-sequence basis

If I have several sequences in a project, and I use the ‘show duplicate frame markers’ option, Premiere only shows if I’ve used the same frames more than once in that specific sequence. If I’ve used a portion of a shot in one sequence, then create a new sequence and add that exact same portion of a shot, Premiere does not tell me that I’ve already used those exact frames elsewhere in the project. I suggest that it should - or we should at least have the option to switch ‘show duplicate frame markers’ to be either project-wide or sequence-specific.

I know I can check in the Project panel’s ‘video usage’ column, but this only shows if some part of that shot has been used, not if I’m potentially duplicating a specific part.

I’m now going to have to hunt, manually, for some unused bits of many shots to use as B-roll, with much tedious cross-checking through various sequences.
