Adding markers to Premiere Pro

Hi,

I've been creating panels using the AS3 and Flash Builder Extension Builder and am wondering if there is a way to add markers to the Premiere Pro timeline from a panel?

I know you can import files by using:

var app:com.adobe.premiere.App = Premiere.app;

var projectPaths:Array = new Array(filePath);

var project:com.adobe.premiere.Project = app.project;

project.importFiles(projectPaths);

Is there a similar way to access and add to the timeline?

Thanks, Alison
