You guys lost me here. When nothing is selected on the timeline, next clip/next edit commands are the same thing. There's no way to distinguish between them.
When either a clip or a cut *is* selected on the timeline, the issue is the behavior of the playhead, and the persistence of the selection in Resolve. While other NLEs typically ignore a selected clip, and movement is always relative to current playhead position, the Resolve playhead jumps to that clip with a next/previous command and moves the selection with it. In most cases, this is unwanted behavior, though it does have its uses when, for example, altering Inspector data or editing subtitles, one clip after the other.
With selected cuts, it get more complicated because the current behavior is often desirable, as a way of avoiding manually selecting multiple transitions of stacked clips (persistent selection eliminates the need to do that).
