yep, good point!
But the user should also be aware of the fact that there are very powerfull 
actions concerning groups/hard-selections!

btw - two other actions needed, respectively a small change of the concept 
IMO.

< S >                   : Do hard-select pointed Clip. When hard-selecting 
another clip the 
other/initially selected clip will be de-selected, so no need to explicitly 
de-select a clip.
<< S D >>               : Add pointed Clip to hard-selection.
<< S A >>               : Remove pointed Clip from hard-selection.
[ S D ]                 : Start a jog-create to add more clips to 
hard-selection.
[ S A ]                 : Start a jog-create to remove some clips from 
hard-selection.

Another btw ;)
What about hard-selecting tracks?
