I just think the whole mechanism is confusing and clunky.   That's why I came 
up with that obnoxiously long but descriptive name.

After a moment of contemplation, I have a half-formed vision of a completely 
new interface that eliminates this manager, and allows the same tasks to be 
accomplished right on the segment canvas.

You should be able to get to the file associated with an audio segment through 
that audio segment, I think.  It could even carry information (via a hover 
menu, or as a label or something) telling you the segment references 
file-X.wav from 00:00:00 to 00:23:45 or something.

Want to import a .wav file, do File -> Import, or right click on an empty part 
of an audio track.

It's an incomplete vision, but I think I'm getting at what I've always thought 
should have been there.

Not that I will ever get arsed, as you say in Britain, to code any of this 
stuff.  Having visions is easy.
