Some potential questions to ask FCP users:

What does your ideal/typical video production process look like?
- What order do the following processes typically take place:
  - Media files downloaded
  - EDL created
  - FCP project created
  - Edit within FCP
What does your file structure for a project look like?
- Where are media files stored?
- And the FCP project?
- Is there a place you would expect to store xml files?
When exporting the fcpxml from DPE, would the option to download media files be useful?
- Even if the media files were compressed?

This is excellent! Thanks @sarahrainbow What is EDL in this context?

Edit Decision List, so I guess I want to know at which point they'd want to use the DPE tool… let me know if there's a better way of phrasing this!
