Where's my sub clips?

The way I'm using favourites/rejected is just to mark off footage that I'd really rather not use, stuff I'd really like to use and everything else that's good left unmarked.
Rejected stuff might be something that is going to require a bit of roto work, has a bit of a discrepancy, doesn't look like it will colour match well etc. but has an obvious alternative shot.
Unmarked could be similar to the above but with no alternatives.
Favourites could be the preferred take, but it's not yet known, it may not cut in as well as another that isn't rejected. So some thought/compromise might be needed later to see what works best.
The idea is that all the rejected clips can be hidden at the earliest possible stage, but can still be brought back later in case of emergency.
After marking off favourites and hiding rejected, I create the keyword collections from the visible footage. I'm thinking the next time I make an event I may even make separate keyword collections of the rejected clips before starting to edit, just to find out if it would make life easier if needed.
