Default Toggle Take Marker display; Lock Take Markers

Take markers are excellent. However, they can clutter the Arrange view and the UX can suffer due to items being difficult to click at small size if there are many markers – the markers get the click rather than the item.

In in the interest of making take markers more usable, I propose the following feature additions:
  1. Allow user to toggle the view of take markers. To avoid confusion, a global setting may be best
  2. Allow user to lock take markers to item. I think the right scope for this feature is per take, i.e. a setting to toggle locking all take markers for a given take. Edit: Probably best just to add take markers to the item locking capabilities along with all the other item elements.

Actually, take markers aren't even included in the item locking dialog as an option, so currently it's completely impossible to lock take markers – lock an item and they can still be dragged around.

So perhaps the best way to implement #2 is simply including take markers along with all the other item elements available to lock currently, such as stretch markers, etc.

I think take markers, in theory an ultra-useful feature, really haven't been picked up much by the user base due to the feature not being fleshed out properly for good workflow.
