Hi Seth,
Thanks for the perspective. I was thinking if my world ever settled
down (won't happen for a few months at best) I might try to gnaw on that
a bit. Thanks again,
Gary

Hi Gary,
edge_dog isn't the most elegant of plug-ins, and behaves more like a
script than most C plug-ins; it creates temporary layers, and to do so,
uses gimp_layer_copy. (see
http://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/tree/plug-ins/common/edge-dog.c line
471). So it inserts a check that the drawable is a layer before it does
anything else.
I expect that careful checks and alternate code paths could alleviate
the issue (copying masks to new layers), or it could be rewritten to do
its operations in a more self-contained way. I'm not volunteering here,
but it doesn't seem like an insurmountable amount of work for someone
motivated.
HTH,
Seth Burgess
