clip converting and automation

[psychasm]

I do a bit of automation and would love to see the following features implemented.

(1) The ability to drag any automation clip to any other track which will immediately be converted to the destination track's automation type as long as the destination track has automation enabled. And if not created , then  dragging the the clip to a track without automation enabled means that one will be automatically created upon release and the automation parameter set to the default of "volume level " .This should not depend on which device is being targeted as clips should be interchangeable
between devices.


(2) The ability for matrix pattern sequence clips to be converted to automation clips and the ability to smooth out the automation with  curves. And vice versa. When it is done in reverse , Reason will approximate the note and gate data and then the user will just have to manually clean it up after.
When this happens , the next  pattern slot in the matrix becomes available.
Another option would have Reason coverted the clip to a matrix curve pattern instead which will immediately appear in the matrix as either unipolar or bipolar ( whichever is selected ) upon which the dragged clip disappears.

(3) The ability for all types of clips to be aligned vertically to one another by selecting target clips and aligning to the destination in 1 click.
