We need STROKE effect

Hi, guys, support me if you need this feature back (especially in the light of Adobe's decision to get rid of the Legacy Titler. We need STROKE effect in any way added to Premiere Pro, either as an effects plugin or a preset. Unfortunately I didn't find any third-party plugin giving Premiere Pro the ability to add that.

The reasons: 1) I need to add stroke to pngs with transparency. I can do it with Essential graphics but THIS IS SO ANNOYING and inconvenient, plus I literally get no ability to further change the png once it has been bruoght to the Essential graphics or the firther editing is too limited and inconvenient. 2) I cannot add stroke to a video+alpha channel. If you put such footage to the Essential  graphics you cannot change its lenght, speed or time of the footage needed. And the essntial graphics does not accept NESTED files.

Instead, you either have to do the editing in Ae where there IS a stroke effects, or do alotta preediting to the emulate this effect within Premiere Pro. Paint Bucket, Radial Shadow, Essential graphics stroke - these are all one wheeled bycicles while we need a CAR!

Might want ask for the CLIP effect back. Last seen in CS2.

Trims off edges and replaces them with a color (default black).

I fully support and resent that there is no such necessary and useful effect in Premiere v. 23.1. This omission should be corrected. In addition, it is necessary that the developers release effect Stroke with graphics accelerator support.
