So you’re saying something like Bezier curves might not be compatible with AFF? Where there’s a will there’s a way, they could program it so that when a user grabs onto a Bezier elbow and, drags, and release, it converts the bezier curve into AFF compatible points. Where there’'s a will, there’s a way.
I was also thinking, perhaps it would be good if there was a Event Volume Editing track mode, in this mode, the primary editing objective is grabbing Event Volume points, and thus, all tools become Event Volume focused including the object selection tool. So, if you shift+click+drag on an event, it doesn’t select the event, it instead selects any Event Volume nodes.
A case example would be, having just recorded three tracks of vocals. silence cropping, event moving, slicing, etc is already all done, now the user wants to dig into volume balancing… they can select all three tracks, enable Event Volume Editing mode, and freely move between all events across all three tracks tweaking away.
Perhaps in this mode, event grabbing/resizing could still be accomplished by creating the mini-event lane you see on MIDI tracks when in Editing In Place mode.
In fact… this could be the audio track version of ‘Edit in Place’, and the same key command could be used. tahdah 
I voted, and I’m going to create a new FR and vote there as well
