another take on the topic:
The need for more experimentation/evaluation has been pointed out,
so what about using an interim version for experimentation, and
discuss the final approach again when more experience is available?
In that case, i'd propose:
- compatibility modes are named like "Normal (NL)"
- these are only selectable from the layers dialog
- the blend modes pop-up has a button to show/hide non-linear modes
- non-linear modes are displayed in a second column with short-name "(NL)", e.g. like
http://yahvuu.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/legacy-blend2.png
- selection via mouse-wheel does not change the column
- no need for fancy notifications when opening XCFs which contain non-linear blend modes
- a script can convert all modes between linear<->non-linear in one fell swoop
just thinking aloud,
yahvuu
