Observing playing_slot_index of a MIDI Clip notifies also if you edit clip content ?!

Hi there,

observing property playing_slot_index works fine (since 2011) but I noticed that it notifies also if you just add a note or edit the midi content of the clip, which is probably a kind of logic for some people but not for some others.

Actually, you play a clip. live.observer detects the one you play, fine.

You manipulate the content, it notifies again.

Live 12.2.1 / Max 9.0.7 (the one provided with Live)

Of course, working around it is possible as there are two different temporalities (in my process, at least): playing (and using the index for doing something, here triggering a markov chain :-) & editing, so I can gate it and create kind of edit/play modes.

But wanted to report it as I didn't see it somewhere but maybe not looked for enough.
