Many sources need some time to fully tune - ASR, screen grabbers, HDMI captures. There is no need to include the startup sequence in the recordings. This could be avoided if the sources could be configured as requiring pre-heating with a configurable time - 5/15/30/60.
Can't you use the padding feature of a pass to start recording a little early? You could make this the default for all recordings if you like.

The closest thing to this is multiview. Just select 4 channels, full screen on one and then hit the left or right button on the remote to switch between them
Great idea, particularly for those with sufficient virtual tuners. Better than padding for sources with known extra tuning time required -- as the preheat time would not be included in the recording.
