In Premiere, you only have two choices as far as this goes: make virtual clips, or use separate projects. Virtual clips are rather disturbing at first, because yes, it seems like there's this other stuff out there on your timeline, but they do work. Be careful, though, because if your "pre-edits" are further along the timeline than your main show, it's very easy to break 'em by ripple-editing the main show. What I do when I need to use v.clips is put 'em on separate tracks unused by the main program, i.e., V4 & 5 and A10 and up in a typical show. The only problem here is that Premiere only handles video transitions on V1. Another technique is to put your pre-edits earlier on the timeline (and finish them first) before assembling your main show further down the timeline. That way, tweaking the edits in the main show won't affect the edits earlier on the timeline. The other thing I'd do in your situation is save the project under a new name for each of the sub-edits, and edit each one separately. By duping the project you keep all the existing clips and capture data. When done, simply import the interviews into the original project as new clips, and away you go.

One feature of a specialized monitor not yet mentioned is underscan capability. Underscan lets you see the entire image edge to edge, instead of having the borders masked off by the bezel of the CRT. It lets you see those light stands and mic booms creeping into the picture before they become too glaringly obvious -- but without underscan (unless you have an underscanned CRT viewfinder on the camera) you won't see 'em until it's too late.

The G400 and G450 both support video overlay fine on the primary monitor, but not entirely on the second monitor. The particular failure seems to depend on the OS, the MGA driver, and the application used. Keep your video vondows on the proimary monitor, and put bins, timelines, etc. on the secondary, and you should be fine.
