timeline corruptions

Hi therem JBM.

I can make a Arch Linux package for the refactoring branch, now that it is
nearly usable.
The only drawback with making these packages is that they replace the
system package, so I have to wait until the branch is mostly usable.

kdenlive-testing-git would be the name of the package.

Kind regards,
Evert Vorster
