Nested NLA Sequences for non-destructive animation
It would be really helpful to be able to create multiple NonLinear Animation sequences in one blend file, and to be able to include NLA sequence inside of another NLA sequence.
Similar to how AfterEffects has nested compositions, or flash had nested movie-clips.
I know it's possible to bake NLA sequences into actions, but that doesn't allow for a non-destructive workflow...and interrupts linked duplicates.
I would like to be able to animate short sequences featuring multiple objects, and then to combine short sequences into longer sequences, with the ability to use linked duplication, and maintain nondestructive editing.
Does this already exist and I just missed it somehow?

Yes it is in the NLA roadmap document now.
This would be incredibly useful to have. This should be pretty high up the priority list IMO. Dealing with big flat lists of NLA tracks with no structure whatsoever is quite painful.
