Makes practical sense yes.

A thought follows, a twist from a twisted mind :)

How about adjusting current tempo (and probably clip onset position as well) to horizontal extent of the current selection (width) ? That is, when you select a clip range that you believe is your recorded beat length (a quarter note if in 4/4), tempo may then be adjusted from that beat length. As tempo is expressed in beats per minute (BPM), it's just a matter of simple visual arithmetic, obviously :)

This way, it kind of works as the inverse or complementary of the shift-click time-stretching method that you already have on adjusting a clip length to current metronomic grid, by dragging one of its edges. It won't need any additional timing markers or the specific visual interaction you suggest, but picking on current (spartan) ergonomics with less effort from my part, that is -- uber-procrastinator does it again ;)

Now's my turn to ask whether this makes sense?

Cheers.
