Pippin wrote a great answer on the way that will be fixed, and some
other improvements
that can be done GIMP side in the future.

As for the present, a workaround find by  my colleague Americo Gobbo,
is to turn off the visibility
os the layer to be "caged".
So: duplicate layer, hide layer, draw cage based on the duplicate,
turn visibility back on, apply cage.
