If a vj use lives to do a vj live session, he must load all clips in a set clip... then if he think that his live session is going to last 2 houres, he has problems to manage all those clips.
Another problem is that this limits vj freedom to adapt his live session to music that he is listening.
How to solve those problems?
A good solution would be think about set clip like a library, then vj can have in his library various set clips like "robots", "people", "nature" and so on.
if there aren't problems to load all those clips at start, i think that can be a good solution have this "default library" that contain various set clips.

    Perhaps it would be enough just to limit ctrl-page-up and ctrl-page-down to the tagged clips.

    So this would have 3 parts:
    1) a method of entering tags for a clip
    2) a method of selecting a tag during playback
    3) reducing the scope of ctrl-page-up/down to the tagged clips

    1) and 3) are pretty easy to implement, 2) requires some thought as to how a tag can be entered from the keyboard without requiring a menu option - for example when in full screen mode. One possibility could be to type the TAG in upper case followed by <enter>
