Heh, no problem. You're fairly understandable (or maybe my French
neurons are automatically filling the gaps that the the (more recently

Apparently Lars was saying last week or so, that it wouldn't be too
difficult from a technical point of view. The challenge is in making
this in a way that makes sense from a UI point of view (I think one of
the suggestions was to decouple the "visible" and "active" layer
attributes, kind of like in GIMP).

I'd guess not, or he did not contribute it, or we (sadly) ignored him
when he did.
