Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.10240-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 980 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 446.14

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.83.0, branch: master, commit date: 2020-06-03 14:38, hash: rB211b6c29f771
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
strips data actions failure to copy when pasted into new scenes

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
In VSE: add any strip and insert key-frames(in opacity for example), press CTRL+C for copy strip > open a new scene or other archive, pulse CTRL+V > in the copy strip does not have action data and keyframes.

Note in rBeaee2b411935: Fix T36263: Pasted strip doesnt have F-Curve keyframes from the original, this already mentioned:

Better method would probably be storing animation data in clipboard as well,
so we can copy animated strips even between scenes.

As far as I can tell this has never been implemented, though it should be easy to implement. Will mark as bug anyway. If this turns out to be a hassle I may reclassify as known issue.

Sorry for interceding in the conversation.
It is a hassle when you have to make group copies of strips from one file to another or from one scene to another.
For example: you have an animation set for a loop or corporate title, and you repeat this in other scenes or files, you have to re-animate the entire strip. Since strip animations do not appear in the Action Editor, there is no easy way to pass animation data between strips.
