One way to make it sensefull and put gimp_layer_offsets to the API is to
rename the function and then
#define gimp_drawable_offsets(id,x,y) gimp_layer_offsets(id,x,y)
or withou renaming the function just
#define gimp_layer_offsets(id,x,y) gimp_drawable_offsets(id,x,y)
You keep compatibility and make happy those who want
gimp_layer_offsets();
:)
