I'm sure you know this, but for others I'll add that this is not the whole picture - there's lots more that you can do with a floating selection: . erase parts of it (it has an alpha channel) . move it . draw on it . use levels/curves . smile upon it lovingly :-) Of course, you can do these things with a layer too.
