[Gimp-developer] Selection lost while working on multiple images. Missing feature or bug?

[Tobias Oelgarte <tobias oelgarte googlemail com>]

Hello,

I open two images in Gimp 2.8.4 and create an selection (for example 
rectangle selection) for the first image. If i now switch to the second 
image and do an selection as well, then the selection on the first image 
is gone if i switch back. Is this intentional or a bug? From the user 
perspective it would be nice to have independent selections for 
individual images/documents.
