What is easier than cut and paste? I'm not sure I can envision anything simpler.
The one thing I do is anchor the floating selection on a separate new layer by hitting the new layer button. Then I can move it around and modify it at will without committing it back to the original layer. When I'm happy with it, I could either flatten the image, or just merge down, but usually I just leave it on it's own layer and export in the format I want so I can go back and make changes later if I like inside the xcf.
