On many occasions, for various editorial and sanity reasons, we need to load non-contiguous image sequences in RV:
my_sequence.0000.dpx
my_sequence.1001.dpx
my_sequence.1002.dpx
...
Obviously, loading this sequence in RV results in a timeline consisting primarily of nonexistent images, with the useful portion of the "sequence" packed on the end. Currently, I use a missing-frame handler to skip over these gaps during playback, but the timeline is still pretty useless.
It would be great if there were a way to explicitly load a non-contiguous sequence in such a way that the missing chunks were factored into the reading of the files from disk, interface updates, etc.
