[RWP] Introducing myself

There are a few custom actions that I've used often enough to tie them
to keyboard shortcuts, for me it's mainly stuff around editing a bunch
of drum mics at once. Really, there's so many neat actions that I
always find something that would've been useful at some point whenever
I go looking, which more often than not gets promptly forgotten about
lol. Felt like Reaper 4 did a lot to bridge the gap here, so maybe the
extra actions SWS provides are more of a gamechanger if you're on
3.78.
