Having a look at it, my feeling is, that it should be merged with:

    http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-image-window-qmask-button.html

"Merged" as in take the best bits from both instructions.

One idea for a future road map is to split up the reference from the
actual manual. I assume it will make things easier if the content is
separated. Having said that, the road map is not developed yet so the
reason why I think it should be merged is simply by the fact that I'd
avoid redundant content.

Ideas about for a future roadmap:
