Thanks, Richard -- another clever idea: turn clips into sequences so you can organize them and work with them in bins. I currently store corrected clips in a single master sequence and copy them out into whatever sequence I'm working on for a video. I can't sort them in bins or use any of Premiere's clip-management tools -- no big loss, though, since those tools aren't very powerful.
I wonder if Adobe has a place to submit ideas for new features? I'd love to choose "Make New Source Clips" for a sequence and have Premiere render and save each clip in the sequence to its own file in a directory. I don't think it would be hard to implement, and would save me a tremendous amount of work. I suspect there are other people out there who might use it as well.
