Take a look at AnimStack http://registry.gimp.org/node/26501which provides
a whole batch of features for creating animations.

And to revert a diff animation layer stack, try the unoptimoze filter
http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/plug-in-optimize.html

  Ok... just to clarify. It seems there are no ideas so I actually do
have to develop it myself... :)
