I’ve already voted “Hell yeah” long time ago, I really want this as well.
But while at it, I could add that I miss something similar: Being able to play the sample in question in any key by first selecting the key in question and then pushing the play button (from the beginning or the current selection), instead of being restricted to the keyboard. Useful for long samples and whole songs. This feature was also inexplicably removed (your suggestion as well if I recall correctly.)
