We force a crash in that place (by using a g_assert) since
something has gone wrong. With your patch we would return a
perfectly valid image_type and gimp would continue, but
a few function calls later it would certainly crash.
I have inserted a few more
g_return_if_fail (GIMP_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)) and friends which
should help to locate problems early.
