layer vs. clip properties: can u trigger a different blend mode for the layer with each clip?

hi all
If there is a link to a manual section that answers this question, that will suffice. Thank you.
My idea might be wrong, but it seems to me u can't assign a blend mode for a clip in the queued columns (containing all clips) that automatically overrides the blend mode set in the "mixing window"?
It seems to me that it would be handy to have for each column, a number of clips with set opacities, blend modes, triggering by audio FFT etc. This is possible for e.g. audio FFT and opacities, u just don't mess with the layer's properties, and adjust these things in the clips themselves. But for blend mode with the other layers to be read from the clip, there should be an option added to blend mode: take from clip, or take default if not available. Or am I missing something? If this option does not exist, u need a much larger amount of layers, if you want all your blend modes preset with each clip.
Related question: if you set the opacity in both the layer and the clip at 50%, the final opacity of that layer will be 25%?
