More love for the video editing speed feature (Sequencer)

I am reporting from blender 5.0.1 , and there is no easy way to simply speed up / slow down videos together with pitch, without resorting to hacks of relatively-advanced-techniques for what they do.

While it's great that blender has a video editing mode, as of now I do find it quite incomplete and needing some quality of life features, like the feature I am requesting.

Suggestions:

• Use a keybind, something like in Reaper, that you can press, and when you press this keybind, and drag the side of your media, it automatically stretches / resamples it up or down (Pitch + speed)

OR

• Do it davinci resolve style with percentages you can select somewhere. The thing already has "Keep pitch" function, I noticed. So I think they would coexist nicely. (~0.1x - 100x)
