I start to see it useful too. Middle click while dragging is the way, well, I think 😉 it doesn’t do nothing (while dragging), right?

Middle-clicking on the timeline area sets the position of the edit cursor. On my mouse the middle-click is done by pressing down the mouse-wheel. It’s hard to do this without accidentally scrolling the wheel, so I wouldn’t be comfortable with using middle-click for often used actions.

Anyway, I think I’ve come up with a solution that pleases all:

The old quantize menu (now renamed to grid/snap menu, shortcut Alt+G) is extended with the options: “Absolute Snap to Grid”, “Relative Snap to Grid” and “Use Shift Key to Override Snap”. Thus you can select whether you want the shift key for overriding snap, or for the old default x/y drag lock. These options are set for each editor.
