So without a zero crossing you get a small pop at loop transition. One thing you can do to create a zero crossing is to render the item with fades intact. I usually do this by the "Apply track FX to items as new take" action.

Would be nice though to have some option to render the item fades with just gluing.

or what else would be nice is the action to slice at nearest zero crossing. there is one for nearest previous and nearest following, but none for closest period whether it be forward or backward.

but for me, i find crossfades actually do a good job of making this unnecessary for the most part. worst comes to worst just add a crossfade, but that said, i'd still rather have my slice tool always slice at nearest zero crossing, this can only be an improvement really. i can't think of a time where i wouldn't want that.
