Yep, the clip split command is in fact affected to the playhead as the split point, so that you will need a lot of luck if you use it while playback is rolling. But, as said, this is the only edit command in this situation. Have in mind that you can select, cut, copy, paste, drag, move and (re)place any region or regions while playback is rolling. I won't recommend you do that while recording is engaged, for some obvious reasons, however it is still possible nevertheless. All these select-drag-and-drop operations don't give a damn to the edit and playhead cursors; you can do it on the fly, even using the keyboard arrow keys. Ain't that something? :p
Have you tried this? This drag-et-al functionality is, IMHO, one of the biggest starring features in Qtractor editing workflow, which I think stands out from the rest. I do admit however I did not pay much attention to that rest anyway :)
