Auto "Scale To Frame Size" Option
When editing longer timelines with mixed photos, SD, HD, 4k, and larger formats from several sources, it becomes a hassle to always "Scale To Frame Size" with unmatched footage. Would be great to have a timeline settings option that defaults to "Scale footage to frame size" so that we can turn off the "Scale To Frame Size" option rather than turn it on- It's much more frequent that I turn it on!

I would also like to see this Settings options, though I think I'd prefer it to use the "Set to Frame Size" choice and to also have a "Set to Fill Frame" choice.
It seems like it happens waaaay too often that we hand 4k footage to an editor for a 1080 project, and they never notice that the footage comes in cropped! (Alternatively/additionally, it could be helpful to have some sort of visual cue that footage is being cropped when placed.)
