Keyboard shortcut for Shift+alt dragging 'replace clips' in timeline

[trevor_7307]

There's a very useful 'replace clip' function that does not have a keyboard shortcut, be very useful if it did, e.g.  'Replace with Clip > From Bin, Match Timing'. 

As an additional - 'Replace with Clip > From Bin, Match TimeCode' and 'Replace with Clip > From Source Monitor, Match TimeCode' would also be useful

Brief overview of drag behaviour:

Shift + Alt + Drag from Bin

• Matches playhead-relative position between selected timeline clip and dragged bin item
  
  Example:
  If the timeline playhead is 5 seconds into source clip 1, the replacement will begin 5 seconds into source clip 2. If the 2 items start with the same timecode then it is the equivalent of 'Replace with Clip > From Bin, Match TimeCode'
  
  
• 2nd+ selected clips → remain in temporal sync with the first (no shot repetition)

It's easy to assign a keyboard shortcut to any keyboard shortcut in Premiere that doesn't have an already assigned one.

Just go to the Keyboard Shorts panel, and add it. The dialog is pretty easy to use.

Yes, absolutely, when the shortcut exists. Unfortunately this one doesn't.

Yes! I would love to have this.  The few times when I've had to go through and replace clips on a timeline, having to do it with a mouse is very tedious.  Having a shortcut would speed things up significantly + open up the option of being able to create a macro to semi-automate the process.
