SUMMARY
Two automations in kdenlive is interfering with my workflow, and while some
people might like it, I would like to be able to turn these off.

**First automation:**
In some cases, when adding an effect to a clip and the playhead is not at the
start of the clip, changing the values in the effect adds a keyframe at the
playhead position. When you want to adjust the strength of the effect for the
whole clip, this is unwanted, and I have to do extra work to remove the added
keyframe. 

As a compromise, holding down some modifier key chould add in a keyframe on the
effect if values are modified on a position in the clip that does not have a
keyframe. 



**Second automation:**
Dragging a clip into a folder in the project bin causes the folder to be
expanded. 

In my workflows I separate the clips I have used in the project from the unused
ones by putting them in a sub-folder in the project bin. This is to effectively
hide them, so I really don't want the folder that I am dropping them into to be
expanded. 

Every time I get move clips into the sub-folder I have to then collapse the
folder again. This interrupts my "flow" because no other file manager works
like that, which is a bit jarring.  

It would be more efficient to just leave the folder in the state that it is in
when something is dropped on it. If the user then clicks on the folder it
should be expanded, and the clip(s) that were dropped there highlighted. If the
user does not click on the folder, the selection should be dropped once the
user clicks on something else.
