Add audio transition to all cuts but the ones with transition already applied

Not sure if this would be possible, and it may be too specific of a request, but... just to be on the safe side, it's always good to add mini-transitions (2 frames) to all audio clips to avoid clipping. The problem is doing this on a big timeline where there are already planned transitions on some clips that are longer; so selecting all audio cuts and applying the default command would kill all those. What if Excalibur could add transitions to all empty cuts only? The only workflow so far is doing that in the beginning of a project or step by step as it builds; or as it's finished.

I also use this technique 🙂 And I understand the reasoning behind it.
I'm not sure this is possible, but I will investigate this question!

As a current workaround I only can think of labeling clips that have transitions with duration different from 2 frames. At the end it will be easier to distinguish between them.

Sir_Ivan thank you for checking! It's not a big deal anyway. Just would be neat if that worked as it'd make it foolproof and safe. I will assume it's not possible though, with my very limited API knowledge.
