At the moment, I am basing it largely on my experiences using Adobe Premier, and what I have seen of Final Cut Pro. So, most initial functionality will work via drag 'n' drop and mouse.

I am quite fond of these kind of programs, but they tend not to be the easiest interfaces to learn, which is why I am sticking to the familiar click-and-drag interface for the moment, but I'll definitely be adding some similar "power user" mode at some later date.
