Drawing empty midi item bug (pencil mode).
Can't draw an empty midi item, pencil always creates a copy of last selected item.
Can't create an empty midi item via pencil tool. It always draws a copy of last selected item, even if none of them is actually selected.
Expected: pencil tool draws an empty item if no items selected.

Yes, confirmed by many. Detailed discussion for the pencil tool here:
http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=36098
Besides fixing the duplicate item bug, it would be great to include the two tweaks discussed in the thread above. Namely:
1) Item loop length defined by length of drawn item (currently fixed to 1-bar loop)
2) Double-click with the pencil tool duplicates Insert->New MIDI item
and a fresh new FR for the pencil tool
3) Allow drawing items from right to left (click, drag to the left, draw from the end of the item to the beginning).

I would have said this is more an FR than a bug, but if the manual says it should draw an empty item, then it should do that :)

Maybe there's a bug in the manual then? :D
In the end it boils down to improving a potentially very useful tool for common MIDI tasks.
