Visual Effects Editor should be listed under Editorial AND Visual Effects

There are two types of VFX Editor roles, one is 'production-side', i.e. working in the cutting-room, alongside the director/editor/assistant editors, and the other is 'vendor-side', i.e. those who work internally at the visual effects house (ILM, MPC, Framestore etc). The former should fall under the Editorial category, and the latter, under Visual Effects. This is also reflected in on-screen positioning in credits.

Production-side VFX Editors are employed directly by the production, and work as part of the editorial team. Vendor-side are employed by the vendor, and are not part of the main editorial team for a project.

It'd be great to have some distinction between these roles.
