Not if I understand the problem, but with the shift key pressed, the move
only affects a single effect

> < hermanr> Oh, so bbb moves immediately, before aaa is touching it?
> < hermanr> That's even weirder!
> < skoe> yes
> < hermanr> Is there a valid case to be made for that behaviour?
> < hermanr> Any at all?

> < skoe> I can understand the movement for clips, but not for effects.
> < hermanr> Agreed.

> < hermanr> Please raise this on the mailing list, ASAP.
> < hermanr> There's a dev meeting here on IRC in two days.
