Hi Anders, your explanations make sense.
The RMX is already runnig short of buttons, so I understand that some compromises have to be done in order to use Mixxx's latest features.
But I would personnaly prefer have rock solid behavior with the basic dj'ing features to perform safely in front of an audience over new functionality like auto beatmach, looping or ladspa effects - which was not really possible until now with Mixxx + an RMX console.

The Stop button is still useful to go back to the begining of the track, which is not necessarily where the first cue marker is, so yes I would certainly miss it.
As for looping, I don't consider it ready for battle use as long as beat detection is not more precise, but I didn't test it enough, so don't take my word.
Anyway, I have my local copy of the old mappings so there is no drama as long as you fix the jog wheels for the other people :-)

Cheers,

LX
