Research direction

Start by reproducing the playlist insertion behavior described in the issue, using Shotcut versions 20.09.27 or 20.10.31 and the linked video for the exact mouse position. Trace the playlist insertion path to determine why placing the pointer on the white separator inserts the item incorrectly. Done means insertion at the separator consistently places the new element in the expected position, with a regression check if the relevant test area is found.
