select_take

Put one take on the Shot Editor's monitor so the director can see it and so the next edit acts on it. Accepts a take path or the words a director uses: "latest", "newest still", "newest motion", "keeper", "plays" or a position like "the third still". The rail scrolls to it and pulses. Call this before freeze_tail, trim_clip, set_keeper or a restyle when the director says "that one" or "the newest". Returns the selected path, its kind and duration.
