Short description of error

If a VSE strip is a scene strip that references another VSE scene and the Use Sequence checkbox is enabled, some properties that are keyframed in the source scene appear to not be evaluated correctly in their time frame in the target scene. I was animating the X Position on a transform strip. I got the animation the way I wanted in the source scene. When I referenced it from the main scene the videos did not show up in the position I expected.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Create a scene with an image or movie whose transform X position is animated.
Create a second scene. Create a couple of scene strips referencing the first scene and lay them out through the timeline.
Scrub through the second scene and watch the animations not correlate with how the first scene was animated.
