Quick search from FCP7 in FCPX?

I remember in FCP7 that in your source monitor FCP7 would remember your last 5 to 8 clips you previously viewed. This helped save time by you not having to go back into your bin to searc for a clip you've recently viewed. Where is this function in FCPX? I have smart collections and keyword collection bins but I'm still having to sift through large bins to find a clip I may have viewed two clips ago. I"d like to be able to quickly bring those clips back up for reveiw.

This was a handy function indeed. You could do the same in FCPX by rating (marking) your viewed clips. Then you set FCPX to only show the marked clips in the Event Browser (one click). This would allow you to see even more recently viewed clips.

Unfortunately the present version only has two "Rating" options (Favorites and Rejected). So if you already use Favorites and Rejected ratings in your workflow this won't help. It would be perfect if they added some more rating options, like "Viewed", and I think this will happen.
