Thank you all for your comments.

You will find an updated windows Kdenlive version that fixes all mentionned 
issues as well as a few other ones:

SHA 256: b8cf0f5c8fbd490915a5eaab16cb8ee43c39a4a1f8d41f6f0a81d42c3847f533

It now also supports color themes, I think we can schedule an official 
Windows announcement together with the the 16.12.1 release on the 12th of 
January...

It should be possible to host the zip file on KDE's servers, I will ask the 
sysadmins in the next days.
