I accidentally Blender VSE

A bit over two months ago I started to contribute a bit of code to Blender’s Video Sequence Editor (VSE). Did you know that Blender has a suite of video editing tools? Yeah, me neither :) Even the feature page for it on the website looks… a bit empty lol.
Do I know anything at all about video editing, timelines, sequencers, color grading, ffmpeg, audio mixing and so on? Of course not!
