I'm a fan of the idea of making the addition of a layer mask easier, and not a fan of adding more buttons if it can be avoided...  So Ctrl+Click sounds like a great comprom

I think I'd rather have a context-menu-affordance button equivalent to
right-clicking on the selected layer.

Why not make it so that the dialog icons are configurable? I personally would like to have a merge down button replace the anker button. I always want to add a new layer when I past something into gimp and never ever want to anker it, I think this should GIMP should work, just add a new layer when I paste something into the image.  If I want to merge it down with the layer under it I would go to the menu and merge it down.

Any way why not make it so that anything in the dialog's dialog menu can be put in the icon bar at the bottom?  So in this case the layer dialog > menu > layers menu. anything in this menu can be added or removed from the icon bar at the bottom.  This way if you want the layer mas button you can have it, if you don't want it you don't want it you can leave the dialog alone.  This could also work for other dialogs for example I think there are too many options in the navigation dialog. I would like it to only show zoom in, zoom slider, zoom out, and 1 to 1 zoom buttons. Oh and possibly some rotate canvas options :)

I think this option is the most GIMP way.  Let the user decide how they want their UI and don't force them into any one option.

If you have it wide enough to fit meaningful names it would fit :)
