select markers lane with edit selection in shuffle mode

    I am doing a bunch of edits to a session by selecting all tracks and removing sections with shuffle mode. I know you can manually shift+click on the markers lane so the markers follow the edit. Is there a way to have the markers lane automatically be selected with the edit selection. When doing a zillion of these types of edits, it really slows down the process having to constantly click that lane manually. Thanks!

        Just made this- It will shift-click the marker lane based on the position of add marker button then hits delete. So I make my selection, run the command and done.
        Because I may jump to slip mode quick and forget to go back to shuffle, I now have it also check to see if I'm in shuffle mode, and if not, select shuffle.

        //Check to see if you're in shuffle mode
        
        var shuffleBtn = sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.editModeCluster.shuffleModeButton.invalidate();
        
        var isSelected = ![
            sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.editModeCluster.slipModeButton,
            sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.editModeCluster.gridModeButton,
            sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.editModeCluster.spotModeButton,
        ].some(btn => btn.value.invalidate().value === 'Selected');
        
        if (!isSelected) shuffleBtn.elementClick();
        
        //Shift-click marker lane based on position relative to add marker + button
        
        sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.buttons.whoseTitle.is("Add Marker/Memory Location").first.mouseClickElement({
            relativePosition: {"x":496,"y":0},
            anchor: "MidCenter",
            isShift: true,
        });
        
        sf.keyboard.press({
            keys: "backspace",
        });
