And IIRC we even discussed the possibility that XCF - in its present form - may become a format that can only be imported and exported, and not saved.

Whatever GIMP's capabilities will be, we won't let any file format limit us - not even our own.

I can even imagine a version of GIMP that doesn't need an explicit Save method anymore - because no image data is saved in a heavy-weight file, only the edits and adjustments, and you will be able get Exports/Snapshots (or whatever you may call them) from any point and any time in the processing graph.
