Copy-pasted keyframes go out of bounds

The problem I'm facing with is the standard Transform effect which is an OFX. Say I have 2 clips: one full-length, the other - cut from the beginning.

On the first clip there's a keyframed animation by the position via Transform. Nothing fancy, just a standard moving the clip into the frame from its outside.

If I copy and paste the attributes of the first clip to the second one, the keyframes are always placed in the same part they were copied from - that is at the beginning of the clip, which means that the keyframes are placed not at the beginning of the cut part of the second clip but at its original beginning which was cut off:

This is wrong and totally inconvenient because you have to move the keyframes every time you copy-paste them. And if you have a 2 minutes long clip of which you leave only the ending and this clip is placed somewhere at the beginning of the timeline, your animation goes "out of bounds":

This really needs to be fixed asap. How it should work - does in every other software - is pasting the keyframes where your playhead is.
