Thanks for the suggestion. I have added the check for floating selection.
Also, as a point, this can not replace the real ctrl-v as it can not
paste stuff from the system cl

Thank you, Rob, for creating this useful script
(Sorry for the top post. I was using gmail from my phone and it
defaults to that and can't be turned off I don't even see what I
am replying to but it sticks it there anyway...)

Yes more or less. The script pastes as a layer not a floating layer.
That is the big difference. And it provides the same alignment
behaviour to the new layer which is not the behaviour of the current
“paste as layer” (which aligns the new layer at 0,0.

I've been following this with interest.
To play with it, I created a script:
http://ffaat.pointclark.net/incoming/scripts/paste-as-new-centered.scm
It registers as Edit->Paste As->New Centered Layer
This script will paste the contents of the buffer as follows:
- If there is a selection, it will

Hi, This has just been discussed in the Libre Graphics Meeting which
just took place, and should be the main subject of the Summer of Code
project I am mentoring.
there are other motives for the Floating Selection (i.e. the "quasi

Hi,
Has there been any discussion about doing away with the 'floating
selection' quasi-layer that occurs after copy/pasting in Gimp? I don't
mean to compare the Gimp to Photoshop, but it seems like this is a place
where Photoshop does the right thing: when graphics are copy/pasted a
new layer
