I was searching today for new scene inheritance related issues in order to update tracker. But I haven't found anything new... (only one issue that I submitted earlier today)

[LikeLakers2]

3354 is fixed.

[pwab]

10147 is fixed and documentation for making resources unique is tracked by godot-docs/issues/581

Ability to modify Animation player in inherited scenes #6169 (enhancement)

Is this fixed? Even importing animations as separate files only persists changes until the next time you export your scene, at which point all your added tracks are wiped out.

@akien-mga's last comment was

AnimationTreePlayer is deprecated in Godot 3.1 and will be removed in Godot 3.2. It is replaced by AnimationTree, which was written from scratch and likely fixes/deprecates this issue.

However, I'm unclear on how AnimationTree can replace the need for adding audio/call tracks to animations. I mentioned some use cases on https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/28275, maybe that issue should be part of this list?
