Hi, First of all, it does look interesting, although: a) I'm not sure I understand 3), b) and 5) is already implemented in v2.9.x (git master branch, as well as 2.9.2 through 2.9.6) in a more common way, through the Layers dialog. It looks like it could also address the recent request for a Photoshop-like Count tool that adds similar points to count features in an image. See https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/counting-objects-image.html for more details. It also looks like you either hacked this into the Move tool (and renamed it) or based in on the Move tool. Which one is it? Finally, as far as I can tell, your code is based on GIMP 2.8.x code base. We recently moved canvas interaction code from tools to new reusable (sub)classes in git master (and 2.9.6), so you'd have to update your patch accordingly to make it work with upcoming 2.10. You'd have to look at subclasses of GimpToolWidet or ask mitch directly on IRC for more hints. And I have a strong suspicion that updating your code to work with git master would be a hard requirement for code review, should mitch et al. decide to include this.
