As it is confusing and inconsistent to have functions in the Strip menu which only works on properties of the active strip even if it is unselected, this design list is for ensuring all functions in the strip menu to work on selection.

- Swap Strip: #91191 Fix: D12441
- Effect menu. Fix: D12451
- Movie(Set Render Size + Deinterlace) and Image(Set Render Size + Separate Images) menu entries should be moved into the source sidebar with +alt for selection. Fix: D12464
- Add Modifier in the menu needs to work on selection and is missing +alt for selected, when executed in the sidebar.
- Inputs menu: Swap data should go into the swap menu and the rest into Strip Source sidebar with +alt for selected. Bug report: #91350
- Toggle Meta and UnMeta should go into the strip sidebar, as they are only working on the active strip. Old patch: #74130

Thanks for initiating this @tintwotin ... these legacy problems do creep in over time and can be hard to pinpoint and notice - nice to finally have fingers on it!

As I do not have anymore time or motivation for a continued investment in the Blender project, I'm giving up on this report for now.

Sorry to hear (thx again reporting). In my opinion we should not sweep this under the carpet, there is still a chance to get this fixed in the future and others might be affected by this issue as well.
Feel free to unsubscribe though.
