Comment 7 for bug 71968

I disagree. Stretching is used very often in sound processing, e.g. to make a drum pattern fit a certain tempo or slow something down for practice purposes.
For me it also seems more intuitive that stretching means time stretch. How does stretching an element translate to copying it?
If you just want to loop a couple of times, a simple copy and paste operation seems to be most reasonable, and probably what most users would think of anyways the first time they would try such an operation. For a longer loop, it makes sense to have a button or something that lets an Event get looped ad infinitum, as the OP says.
