Big upgrades to the Experimental QWidget Timeline (faster scrolling/zooming, improved snapping, markers, thumbnails, waveforms, fewer freezes)
Multi-selection editing across clips/effects (property dock + transform handles + safer undo/redo)
Faster exports with VideoCacheThread integration + smarter bitrate for “All Formats”
New/expanded effects & creative tools: LUT Color Map, Lens Flare, Sharpen, Outline, Spherical/360 tools (plus updated docs/icons)
