The goal is to reduce wasted space and improve clarity in the 'N' panel of the VSE through layout changes.
The changes are intentional conservative to avoid making people re-learn anything.

Although this wasn't so obvious since it
only showed up for factory settings and in the preferences window.
Panel display order depends on registration order,
Sorry for the noise. On the bright side we no longer need to move
classes around to re-arrange panels.
While this isn't essential, accessing this setting required navigating to each scene and using render menu.
Expose in sequencer UI for more convenient access.
Image filter was not set, but only if invoked from toolbar (image strip needs to be selected to see the button).
Caused by rB7fa72b8970, Wasn't aware there's another button for this for image strips.
This is handy for cases when mask is created on top of the edit and
used for tasks like color grading and other enhancement.
That was the main purpose of the masks which was totally broken in
6786ef6. Now it's possible to have masks created as both a part of
input movie roto process (which then better be re-mapped to the strip
timing) and as a grading tool (which should be using scene timing
for the animation).
Thanks artists from the Nieve for screaming about such a broken case.
- Fixed a bug that the sound when changed in the properties panel was not updated.
- Added the option to make a sound mono while adding a sound strip.
- Added the option to make a sound mono in the sequencer properties panel.

This snippet creates a white balance modifier for the video sequence editor. It is useful for everyone who likes to set a new white point in the video source (easily via the eyedropper). Just select a point in the source file where you know that it should be white. The algorithm will then shift the colors towards your new white point.
See attached the image for a quick demo.

Changing path of a sound strip (select strip->C->'Path/Files') opened a file browser without filter for sound files, so sound files weren't visible.
Also, for movie/image files, now only movie **or** image files are visible in the file browser by default (instead of both).
Reported by @venomgfx, thanks!
This makes it possible to use scenes as a kind of
multi-user meta-strip (with their own time).
Currently this supports rendering & drawing nested strips,
but no convenient way to tab-enter into a scene strip.
- default alignment to lower center.
- placement is now relative,
so changing output size keeps correct placement.
- instead of center override, add align option (left/right/center).
Also don't use pixel-size for setting the font size, on new strips.
Better not have UI prefs impact low level API's.
This commit adds a new operator that will compile the list of text
strips into an srt file. No positioning is supported yet but will
be added later.
The operator can be found in the effect panel in the strip properties.
Is pretty much what it says :)
Easy subtitles for everyone!
Supports size, positioning,
a cheap shadow effect (probably will need more work),
and autocentering on x axis.
Now you can go wild with long spanish names
in your soap opera videos.
Will probably be refined as days go by,
but at least it's now ready for testing.

I/O

Scene Render Views
* Ability to have an arbitrary number of views in the scene
Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

There are two per-editor settings now, the Per-Strip setting (default)
and the Project setting.
The per strip setting basically uses the previous, per-strip options for
storing the proxies.
The project setting though will use a specified directory for -all-
proxies, or the blend file directory if no directory is given.
This reverts commit ec03ab021f.
Changing this since it looks like Mattieu does not really like the change.
Will be adding another way to tweak the directories
* Enable operator for proxies now becomes set operator for selected and
can unset-set all options.
* Properties become read-only labels, only use operator to set proxies.
For now, did most of the changes in menu entries (i.e. py space UI scripts).
Note we do not get 100% same results as previously, but current situation is
globally better than previous one, though the whole system to retrieve shortcuts
remains a bit weak...
