Many bugs I discovered in Gimp 2.99.19 with NDE have to do with "layer boundaries/layers to image size"
In the past few months I have found and reported several bugs having to do with NDE and filters clipping. This all has to do with the "layer boundaries". Layer boundaries in Gimp were introduced decades before NDE existed and now they are causing problems with it. I am making this post to argue that in the future we need to radically modify the layer boundaries system in Gimp to not clip NDE filters, and perhaps keep the current layer boundaries as a legacy feature for old .xcf compatibility.
This will be a lot of work but it must wait till after Gimp 3. The goal of this post is to heavily modify the code for layer boundaries.
