Bring back the Record drop down menu!
Gwen Hedden
The recent "contextual" record update has removed the dropdown menu that gave designers the ability to select "record into script" vs "record new layer". Often when trying to place the playhead or select a destination for a recording layer, I have accidentally recorded into script which can have catastrophic impact to existing layers and script (and too much time editing). Please bring back the drop-down menu that will allow us to override the "contextual" selections.

Hi Gwen Hedden - the new system still allows for recording into Layers, you just do it now by selecting a Scene you want the layer recorded to. The button context display will change to let you know you're recording to the right space. We are getting more feedback about this, so I'm going to leave this feature request open for the time being.
