Black Flash Frame when playing videos in List - I’d love to see preselected videos in a list cached before playback to eliminate flash frame.

I produce a lot of shows with several videos in lists (to reduce GPU). Currently the next video on the list is "prepped" in the cache for immediate playback, cached by vMix to ensure a smooth cut transition as you go down the list.
However, if you play the list randomly, or backwards, then it has to load the video and there is a 1 frame black flash before it plays.
Seeing as there is the function to move the orange highlight selector up and down the list before playback, I would like whatever is highlighted to be cached so that the selected video will cut smoothly.
(It would also be good to then have the selection capability available in companion or as shortcuts).
I hope this feature can be added as my workflows would be simplified greatly.

One can select which of the videos in the list to play with a shortcut ! (SelectIndex)
