GEGL will do compositing in linear light RGB, while GIMP will do
compositing in sRGB (unless profiles are attached to the image, then
it will do compositing in that random space). The results of GEGL
compositing when GIMP is not lying to GEGL about the pixel format of
the pixels will in most cases result in slightly different results.
