When markers are planned in SC I would like to suggest for the ability to give clips different colors.
The timeline yet is so doggone blue.

Do you mean individual colours for the markers?
No, for each clip in the timeline, by rightclicking the mouse for a color panel.
And additionally individual locking each clip, - not only the whole track.

That sounds useful if one has a high amount of clips - I like it.

Those separate from markers and probably not implemented at the same time.
I’d love to see this in SC. In the past (using other editors) I have changed the colours of clips to indicate further action (background audio required, additional clip or where there’s a problem with the clip that needs addressing). It would certainly be a useful feature.

This would be very useful to me.
I frequently find I need to engage the assistance of the Ripple Brothers* to open up a space in time, particularly to add the branding/titles sequence. Often the clips I need on both sides of the new space in time overlap. The rippled move snips off the ends of overlapping clips, moving the new snippet along with the rest. Now I manually slide the snippets forward or back and Merge To Next Clip to restore them. (I can’t lock that track; everything farther along on the track must move.)
If clips could be locked, I could lock the overlapping clips, and save myself the trouble of Move and Merge.
So I put in one more vote in its favor.
