GH4 Warp Stabilizing 4K footage

Any tips on how to best do this in Premiere if I plan to have a 1080p deliverable?

Should I make a 4K timeline, warp stabilize footage there, and then render it and drop it into a 1080p timeline? or Nest it and drop it in?

Or should I drop 4K footage into a 1080p timeline, scale it down, and then warp stabilize (though I don't think adobe allows warp stabilize on scaled footage..?)

Thanks! I often smooth out a lot of shots and am looking forward to how to best use the extra pixels for this sort of thing. How have other people's results been? (or any other recommendations for different software or plug ins for this to use within Adobe?)
 
It is a shame that it will not work with 4K on a 1080 timeline... I mean all those extra pixels just begging to be used. Is there a plug-in that would do it?
 
Best results would be to Warp Stabilize in a 4K Sequence, then drop the stabilized 4K sequence into a 1080p sequence (and use Scale to Frame Size or manually scale as desired).
 
or use the warp stabilizer in an after effects 4k comp and put it in your premiere 1080p timeline via dynamic link.
 
hmm ok. It's really too bad none of these do it "proper" but stabilize in 4K and nest to 1080p sounds like best for now.

No other plug ins?
