So far, Kdenlive offered separate actions for "play zone", "play/pause", and "pause". With recent git master, the action "play/pause" has been removed. Please bring back "play/pause" which is quite useful, especially when working with a ShuttlePro jog dial: this combined action requires only a single physical button and physical buttons are rather limited in number on the ShuttlePro. Reproducible: Always
I think the "Play" action in fact behaves as Play/Pause. So assigning a shortcut or button to it should allow you to do both actions, like spacebar currently does
Unfortunately, it does not (I checked before reporting to make sure). The reason I noticed was because onr ShuttlePro hardware key was reassigned its action to the first available action, add clip. Then I reassigned ... and found no play, only play zone. But pause doesn't work as play/pause when I tried.

Works now again as expected. Thank you very, Jean-Baptiste, much for fixing this regression!
