[Gimp-developer] Please, if you can, change this in GIMP 2.10

Dear Sir or Madame,

First of all, I want to thank you for your work on GIMP!

Second, I have some problems with opening Photoshop PSD files with layer
masks. Actually, when I open Photoshop PSD file with layer mask (like
attached file "Image with Layer.jpg") in GIMP it doesn't open layer at the
same size as the image which it belongs to, instead GIMP opens layer in
their own size (Layer Boundary Size) which cut-off layer mask (look at
attached file "Image with Layer Mask GIMP.jpg") so that it doesn't look
like in Photoshop (look at attached file "Image with Layer Mask
Photoshop.jpg") even after doing "Layer to Image Size" (look at attached
file "Image with Layer Mask GIMP after Layer to Image Size.jpg"). This
cause that some Map Filters (Bump Map, Displace, Warp...) doesn't work
right because they usually need layer mask (Map) to be larger then layer.

So I want to please you, if it's possible, to change the way how GIMP open
Photoshop PSD files so that it opens layer at the same size as the image
which it belongs to so that it doesn't cut-off layer mask or give a choice
to users how they want to open Photoshop PSD files in GIMP (with layer size
on its own or layer size same as the image which it belongs to).
