The thin skinned mods banned me about five or six years ago for commenting on my first hand experiences using both Sonar and Reaper. I could use that additional track selection panel from within editor, but why, if I have all my tracks to the left of the piano roll window anyway? It's stuff like this that makes me shake my head. So now piano roll still opens up first item on the clicked track. Some stuff is not possible at all: just the other day i wanted to create mouse modifier for doublecliking track - while piano roll is open, by double clicking on a track i wanted an action to select an item under edit cursor on that track and then move cursor to the beginning of that item, but i could not find an action that would select item on selected track under edit cursor. It's little annoyances like that that add up like noise. Same tab button press action wont work in midi editor instantly after opening it up, cause first you got to cycle trough ui. As an example, using tab to switch between midi notes in sequencer - once you at the end of the item, it wont switch automatically to next item! So go to either use another action or mouse. I had plenty of those ready to go, but in my experience I had to always correct their results manually. Sure, some combinations of actions do things quickly, most of them wont thou.
Once you use properly coded plugins that don't do weird shit just because they think they can, it's golden. Once you're in custom action territory it's game over for most other DAWs. There's plenty of things you can do in Reaper in a single action that many other DAWs couldn't even begin to think how to do.
