GEGL itself is inherently high bitdepth, the current integration of
GEGL in GIMP however isn't complete and thus GIMP is still storing the
pixels in its own data structures which are 8bpc. Until that part of
the migration is done it doesn't matter that some code paths are using
GEGL for the processing.
