I'm confused about where the line is - what the difference is - between 
discussions of the GUI and discussions regarding new/existing/modified 
editing algorithms. This is not the first instance on the Gimp-gui list 
where I've been puzzling over the difference, but it's a good example.

Also, what does "on-canvas" mean?
