  Target Milestone: ---

When working with transform/rotoscoping effect (everything that requires
working in project monitor) I want to be able to drag video with middle mouse
button click (hold down).

There are multiple issues with it, though it exists:
1) There are limitation. I can't use it if I zoomed out video or not zoomed at
all, only when zoomed in. Also when there is no clip at all
2) When clicking middle mouse button the play of the clip starts.
3) There are maximum zoom out and zoom in limits, that prevent me from working
with some effects. For example I wan't to zoom in thaaat much, that I would see
pixels. But I can't (this is a very bad restriction, that prevents creative
from going on). 

So my proposal is:
1) Allow to use middle mouse button when not zoomed, when zoomed in, when
zoomed out, when there aren't any other clip.
2) Remove !SIDE EFFECT of play start when clicking with middle mouse (this is
very bad neighborhood) AND monitor toggle (or what is also there?).
3) Remove limits of zooming IN and zooming OUT (to the most possible extent). I
can zoom in and zoom out to around 1 pixel of video (for example).
4) Make the background of project monitor checkered (darkened white - lightened
black).
5) Add some kind of grids to snap to it when moving things around.  Alignment
and snapping is very important if we want to add nice effects to the clip.
