Built-in support for recording voice audio (as opposed to importing audio)

I find the current word highlighter in transcriptions a huge distraction. It is a completely different colour to everything around it, and does this pulse animation when it moves over each word. It is incredibly distracting, and makes it really difficult to focus on what you are trying to read. I would really like an option to make it more subtle - either make the text background, say, a light grey, or making the word text a different colour. As it is, I cannot use the transcription feature at all.

I would like to have a sidebar option to list of all my markers. This way, I can have an outline of the composition and jump right to a specific marker to start working

Both for adding and exporting there is no indication of how much longer to expect, or how long it's been running. Just a mysterious spinning circle. Almost done? Should I go get lunch? Is it hung? No way to know!

I can see you can choose from a limited ammount of fontfaces, I'd love to be able to use the fonts installed on my system or even just specific fonts that I chose, otherwise it just makes me need to go to an other software to create the simplest of titles.

Ability to drag and drop scenes to re-arrange them.

We use Munch and Opus Clip to find clips to repurpose. After finding them, we use Descript to create social clips. It would be more convenient to have this feature in Descript to avoid using multiple tools.

It would be cool to create a template for things like Fancy captions so I don't need to adjust them every single time in terms of size, font type, border, live text, etc. Or section headings, the same thing. I spend a lot of time doing the same things over and over on a different part of the script.

I thought this existed, however, I can't find any longer. When creating a video for social it would be advantageous to limit its size for easy posting.
