I wish I could just double click an audio file, select the portion I want in the Waveform editor, and paste it into the multitrack session.
Or perhaps there is something I'm missing?
Yes there is. Make your selection, right-click on it and select the 'insert into multitrack' option. Easier than double clicking and messing about, any day!
I should perhaps add that right-clicking often brings up exactly what you're looking for in Audition - worth doing this all over the place, in fact.
