            Bug ID: 516388
           Summary: Layers in a Group Can be Moved Above Masks Attached to
                    the Group
    Classification: Applications
           Product: krita
      Version First 5.2.15
       Reported In:

SUMMARY

Masks in a group (transparent mask, transform mask, filter mask, etc.) apply to
the entire group, so they should always appear on top of the layers that they
apply to. It shouldn't be possible to reorder the layers or masks to place a
layer above a mask.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Create a layer group
2. Put a paint layer inside it
3. Add a transparency mask to the layer group
4. Drag and drop the paint layer so it's still inside the group but above the
transparency mask

OBSERVED RESULT

The paint layer is displayed on top of the transparency mask, despite the fact
that the transparency mask will affect it, since it affects the entire group.
This behavior is confusing because it's contrary to how the layer stack works
in general.

- Layer group
-- Paint Layer
-- Transparency Mask (of Group)

EXPECTED RESULT

Even if the paint layer is dropped on top of a mask, it should automatically be
reordered so it's below the masks.

- Layer group
-- Transparency Mask (of Group)
-- Paint Layer

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

It might be a good idea to have a setting to allow this in case someone is
actually putting their layers above their masks on purpose.
