Adding a new feature named "Unnest" to Adobe Premiere Pro CC
Hello. I am Sabzipour. I'm a film editor and I work professionally with Adobe Premiere Pro. Adobe Premiere Pro is my favorite software and I've been working with it for over twenty years and I want to do something to improve it.
After you nest several clips in Premiere Pro timeline, you may need to separate them again and “unnest” them. So you double-click on the nested sequence to open in another timeline.
My suggestion is that when we double click on the nested sequence, it will open in the current sequence, not in an independent sequence. Or when right click on the nested sequence, add an option in the menu named “Unnest” , which by clicking on it, the nested sequence will be opened in the same current sequence.

Edit: I discovered the grouping feature. Which is more appropriate than nesting in my case.
The workarounds that we have to go through to un-nest are time consuming. One button to un-nest would be ideal and make sense. It can be nice to nest a cut up audio file to make edits that apply to all of them. And then I need to un-nest the audio to bring it back to the cut up version so I can tweak specific spots.
Also when I duplicate a sequence it is automatically nested. If I want to view individual cuts or work on the duplicated file at all I need to un-nest it. Which means watching another YouTube tutorial about this topic because it is so unintuitive. So instead of using the elegant feature to duplicate I have to select all, make another timeline, and paste all. All of this should be one step but it is much faster than doing it the right way and having to figure out how to un-nest once again.

Adobe wake up! and add an un-nest option, we make lots of nests for large edits and need to bring back the original clips for the final master.... please make it happen! We are a professional production house.

Yes! I find it counterproductive not to have and UNNEST feature.
FCPX have something similar called COMPOUND and I can easily UNCOMPOUND my clips by simply pressing CMD+G.

I have been experiencing discomfort for a long time and fully support the new NEST unlock feature. Guys do it as soon as possible. Just one click and the whole hierarchy of your work is restored. This is an extremely important function that has not been available until now. Now it's an extra job, although there are at least 3 ways to get it back. But the new feature would speed up the process. Developers, pay attention to this rather. Waiting waiting waiting

Resolve has this as Decompose in place. U ppl shud have Unnest or Deconstruct in Place like Layer via cut and Paste in Ph. It has to have the memory of layering when nesting so it gets back to the same layer positions when unnesting. This is quite easy feat to achieve why don't you make it.

Yes, it seems bizarre that this feature is missing. I had to google this and it's crazy what people have to do achieve what should be possible with one click.

Yes Adobe please create an "unnest" button somewhere!
Davinci has something like this but Adobe needs a button or a shortcut for unnesting
