Import, start editing immediately.
Transcode happens in the background.
No "conforming" on the backend.
Export to ProRes.

If my system started transcoding 250 hours of documentary footage in the background, thereby bloating my entire project by Terrabytes, I'd be pretty pissed at all the wasted hard drive space.

No, I don't want any sort of transcoding going on the background. I want to stay native until the very end and THEN Transcode just my final project.

And we also like keeping the traditional editing workflow in place rather than introducing something brand new.
