Unfortunately, I do not think that is going to happen, Many users preferred the former, which included the remote window option (SF10 and earlier). I questioned this on beta test SF Pro11, when it was introduced. SCS did not respond to that or anything else, including the sizing issue on hi-res monitors. Magix fixed the sizing issue soon after the acquisition from SCS.
That is still possible in Pro 11/12, just not as easy.. or intuitive. After selecting "View> Record Options" (Ctrl+Alt + num 5), Enable "Transport> Arm" (Ctrl+Shift+ A).
