Ah, I like the capability! But the process itself is painfully tedious...
I'll try finding out a simpler method in Synfig.
BTW, if we ever have Layer/Animation management similar to Adobe Edge, we could always have the "Encapsulate Keyframe" trick in the Timetrack; envelope all the keyframes and "scale" them to shorter timespan or longer (like in Blender).
