Every GEGL Gimp Plugin of mine that uses "gegl:layer src=" (the image file upload) crashes on Gimp 2.99.16+
I use the GEGL node gegl:layer with its src property to allow my Gimp plugins to use image file uploads. This works correctly in Gimp 2.99.16+ and it displays the image file upload, but when I hit ok to apply it, it crashes. I am aware the gegl node gegl:load also does the same thing but funny enough it also crashes in 2.99.16+ just by being in a filter. I do not know if this is a problem with Gimp or GEGL.
GEGL operation I am referencing.

Let's find a way to fix this. You can test this bug without using my plugins by entering gegl:layer src=(path here) in Gimp's GEGL graph. Use an image file of whatever. It will load but hitting ok will crash things.
