Summary0001315: Incorrect disabling of DCP panel controls when adding DCPs
Description

Add a DCP, reference its video.
Add another DCP: now can't change reel type in the DCP tab as it is disabled (because _film->references_dcp_video()).
I guess the intent was to stop the settings being altered once the project refers to a DCP, but it means you can't alter reel settings to allow referencing of the 2nd DCP.

Is referencing a second DCP an operation that should be allowed at all? For all cases of referenced DCPs, reel segmenting should and must be set to content boundaries. Am I missing a useful application of referencing multiple DCPs in one VF?

Yes, I think this is fairly niche. And if we don't disable the reel type we have to do something when it is changed to an invalid value; either stop things being referenced immediately or allow the user to get to "make DCP" before telling them that their settings are inconsistent.
