Inserting plugins always puts them on the end of the list.It would be helpful if they'd be inserted before the one that's under the mouse when right clicked.
In the example a plugin, aux or insert should be inserted before mdx2600 and after f200.

Works fine. Thx Rui.
inconsistencies: Insert Plugin before the marked one
Hi Rui and @bluebell, I've found some inconsistencies in this new feature.
If you don't select any, plugins go to the bottom of the list, while pseudo-plugins are placed at the top. This is especially inconsistent since pseudo-plugins are usually sends, and a send should always be placed at the end. Selecting an instrument and then adding a send that is placed before the instrument makes no sense.
I know this means you can never place a plugin at the top if one is already there. However, it's much more predictable for the user to have it appear as the second item (which is easily accessible, unlike olders versions when it ended up last and could be hidden) and then drag it to the top, rather than sometimes ending up at the end and other times at the beginning arbitrarily.
Also, the bus list now always adds a new bus after the selected one.
Therefore, I believe that, in general, this would be a more predictable and comfortable experience for the user:
If no plugin is selected, the add-on ends up at the end of the list; otherwise, it ends after the selected one.
What do you think?
Re: inconsistencies: Insert Plugin before the marked one
Yep, that would be fine.

no more in qtractor >= 1.6.2.11git.147429
nope, it still ends before the selected one.
UPDATE: scrap that! it is all back into consistency now (kind of): qtractor >= v1.6.2.12git.d3e1d5
yep, in a halfway plot switch, it's all following the after semantics now ;)
enjoy && cheers! ;)
It works fantastically
Thanks :)
