To me, not having all the sounds loaded and ready to go is a memory
saving optimisation. That's not the sort of thing a user should have
to be concerned with.
When you are running a show, QLab manages to have the right sounds
loaded at the right time. Maybe it needs to guess what you want in
the case you describe too. Perhaps auto loading whatever sound (or
sequence) is selected, after perhaps half a second, so it doesn't
load every sound as you scroll through.
