Hi Julien, I'm not in front of the reference right now, but from the context you've provided it appears Vis would be shorthand for visibility. I'd guess that's dealing with some layer order drawing rules.
Aux pad is an auxiliary input to the gegl chain. If you envision the tree-like structure connecting processing elements, the Aux pad wouldn't be connected along the main input / output line. Instead it could be from anywhere in the pipeline (including an independent element or self sufficient generator like white noise) . Pad is a synonym for the connection point which comes from circuit board terminology. 50% gray is a color reference that is standard terminology in image processing. Because we as humans don't perceive contrast linearly, 50% gray does not correspond to the midpoint of the color scale (e.g. 127/255 if you were in 8-bits). You can read a bit more about it here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_gray Hope that helps!
