I usually duplicate when it is time to flatten and save the finished image. So the original pic stays intact. But I think the "always save" and "Save a copy" are both good ideas. However, another issue comes out from this: anyone else noticed that gimp sometimes forgets the filename after several image operations (cut&paste seems to trigger it sometimes) - I have even got the image filename look like something like "ª$®ØJ£®£$J¡£¿£°$¡-0" which usually is enough to make you feel very uneasy about the data structure integrity inside gimp - I usually restart promptly after that :) However, it sometimes just resets back to Untitled-NN.
