How to unblock Rotate&Scale

The News article for the v20.09.13 release doesn’t mention Text: 3D, but it was one of the filters based on QtWebKit technology that had to be removed because Qt is no longer supporting it. That is explained in the article: Shotcut - New Version 20.09.13: Pad Blur and Rich Text Video Filters

so the removal was of filters such as Text: 3D was not done arbitrarily. It had to be done. Plus they clashed with preview scaling which is a very much needed feature for Shotcut.

I would be interested in knowing what you @steven and @ken-wawa don’t like about the new Size, Position and Rotate filter. Does it have to do with the situation mentioned at the start of the thread below?

It should be noted that Rotate & Scale also clashed with preview scaling while the new Size, Position and Rotate does not.
