First Automation Lane on top of audio file

Why can’t we ever get the first automation layer on top of the audio file? This would cut in half the amount of screen space needed to do a mix by mouse. Less opening and closing, less clicking, more viewable tracks at a time.

Come on, people. Is this one so hard? It is almost like someone has dug their feet in the ground and is refusing to grant one obvious feature that would simply save us time.
