From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Such a huge usability improvement! I always tried to mimic this kind of workflow with what was available before, but it never worked seemless and I always forgot how I did it last time (lol, but also sad). This release is such a big deal.
Yeah! The workarounds I had before were complicated and didn't perform very well, so this is a major improvement.
I suspect that it will be easy for the GIMP team to make this a new layer type of its own and make it even simpler too.
