Stinger Track Matte Transitions with Slideshows

Was working on a new stinger track matte transition with the new Track Matte features. Made 2 test images, one each in 2 Scenes. Got the stinger transition working, looked great. Switched between the Scenes with my stinger transition. I was ready to put it into production.

So, I go to set it up in an OBS Slideshow, and I find that neither the Stinger transition, -- nor my newly created uniquely named saved stinger transition -- neither shows up as an available choice. Slideshows only support Fade/Cut/Swipe/Slide options, but no Stinger at all?

So, I try a second idea, which is to use a Slideshow, and then advance my slides manually with my new Stinger transition. But this doesn't work, either. In Studio mode, if I try to advance a slide and then manually transition it with my stinger, it won't work because advancing the slideshow in Preview also advances it in Program, so it appears using only Fade/Cut/Swipe/Slide.

So, I try a third idea, which is to set up individual images within a Scene for my slides, and use the Show Transition / Hide Transition options. But these only work in non-Studio mode. We mostly use Studio mode, so they won't display until you manually use a transition to move a slide from Preview to Program windows. This means this method does work, but only if I know to manually hit my saved named stringer transition.

My question is whether it is ever planned to have stinger track matte transition support within a Slideshow. We use Slideshows a lot, as they allow us to manage batches of slides at a time. But it appears to me I can only get this to work using individual images

Thanks, all.
