This is just a quick idea but it may be very useful? Opinions are very welcome.
Here's the starting place...
Track is selected and mixer (track and bus) is focused as expected.
Below the Odin2 plugin, is a AUX Send. The associated bus is located quite far to the right in my mixer panel. In other words, I'd have to reach for the horizontal scroll bar in the mixer in order to find it when I want to get into any plugin(s) attached to the bus. This is tedious and boring so I wonder....
Perhaps if one were to click on an AUX Send in order to highlight it (seen below), the "focus" behavior of the mixer panel could be overridden and the associated Aux Send bus could take the focus?
What's nice about this is how easily one would be able to quickly bring the mixer focus back to the track (and associated bus) by simply clicking on the track again in the Arranger window.
Thoughts?
Multirow mixer
You can have a multirow mixer layout. That makes it easier.

I'd say that's harder on the eyes and less intuitive. It also doesn't scale. At the core of the request is the idea we should be spending less time "finding things" with our eyeballs while leaning into the software to guide us as needed.
re. Highlight Aux Send bus if selected...
wish granted: v1.5.7.19git.88cd35d
nb. you have no more wishes left (at least before v1.5.8 release :D)
cheers
