Jonathan,
This would certainly be an improvement and would be the feasible solution short term. However, the problem of changing the settings of the filter still remains. You would still have to do this for each clip on the track.

In the longer term I think it would be good to be able to associate a
filter directly with a track. The effect of the filter would be applied
to all clips on the track, but there would only be one set of settings,
and it would be reachable from a context menu for the "left part of the
track, near the name". (and these "track-filters" would be applied after
the clip-filters). This is my proposal 3 above.

Applying "Effects" to a "Group" of clips

Bug description:
Adding an effect to a clip is beautifully simple (drag-and-drop), but not adding an effect to multiple clips in one hit.

This is even more problematic when you alter the default values of an effect (e.g. clip 1) then want to apply that change over a series of other clips.

Some form of "Group" option would solve this issue, where "Effects" (even "Transitions") could be applied to the "Group" entity rather than the individual clips... while still allowing each clip to retain it's own effects/transitions.

Many thanks in advance.
