I hadn't noticed that yet: All non-GEGL modes now actually use deleted content for compositing, so that could probably be called broken. (Paint something on bottom layer that has effect on top layer's compositing, then delete content in bottom layer to get checkerboard. There are changes in alpha, but the deleted drawing still shows through) But if what you wrote was an answer to my questions, it was much more than I bargained for. ;) I just meant if GEGL should also implement the current HSV-based color layer modes for (then) old files, or if GEGL will stay with just supporting the LCH modes.
