To the user this new take looks like an exact copy of the original. The new take will be completely editable and the "ignore project tempo" is automatically disabled in the new take. This can be used as a workaround in current Reaper version. It can be quite confusing to make these operations if you don't know what is happening under the hood. It should not be required to understand the internal implementation details when doing this kind of tempo/timing edits.
As you can see this is really much more complex process than it should be. And I hope there will bugfixes or new features that will make this process a lot easier.

Thanks for your excellent reply, you have explained it well. I quoted the part above because I was wondering if the 'apply track FX' to item would 'reclock' the MIDI as you have described. I seem to remember trying this and it not working as expected. I will re-visit some projects, in the meantime, thanks.
