This is a big deal! My primary use of Audacity was to create custom edits of tracks I wanted to mix, saving effort later when DJing. Aligning my edits with the beat grid always took a lot of work, so much so that I hacked up a different audio editor, trying to integrate beat detection (https://github.com/marssaxman/gum-audio). Audacity felt like it was frustratingly behind the times in this regard; well, it's five years later now, but I'm glad to see they've made it happen.
