Hi there.

We had a lot of discussion about the Sound UI in IRC and there were 
loads of suggestions and nothing really seems to fit 100 %.

What we are talking about is what is currently the Sound Tab in the 
Sound Block Buttons in 2.4x, in 2.5 you should be able to do there:

* Sound File Loading
* Sound Editing (ID Name, Path, Caching and Packed File packing/unpacking)
* Playback (A button for Play/Stop)

For the 2.4x version see:

The simple difference is that the Copy Sound, Load Sample, Loop, Volume 
and Pitch UI elements would be removed and a checkbox for caching added.

Ok, now the suggestions on where to put that UI:

* A seperate Tab in the Buttons Window (My favourite)
* In the Scene Tab in the Buttons Window
* In the Audio Space (reviving it)
* As a single line (like for Image) in both the VSE and Logic Window

So what do the UI design gurus say?

Regards,
Jörg
