Wait wait, hold the phone. There's a plugin that lets me use Photoshop 3rd party filters?
Yeah, maybe we still don't get those layer effects, but this remains quite cooly awesome!
(I suspect that if GIMP is to ever really have layer effects, it's going to have to build this in from the ground up in a later major release, which I suspect will not be easy, and developers working for free can't be expected to do something that daunting very quickly.)
I think, therefore I am a nerd.

The devel team's focus has been to port the gimp core over to GEGL. This will completely change the power of gimp. It will act like audio filters where they can be chained...in other words you could go "back" and change the amount of blur you applied back in the first step. So every single GEGL implemented filter would act much like layer effects do in PS.

I read about the dev effort on GEGL, but didn't understand from what I read what the benefit was supposed to be. I thought "I already have the ability to undo everything". It wasn't made clear to me, in that regard, that I could undo them out of order (if I read that right). So... if I did something ten steps ago, and want to change that, but keep the following 9 things I did, this GEGL implementation will allow that? That is pretty cool. Thanks!
