My current work on XCF2 has been moved over to a collaboration with
krita developers on an OpenRaster specification that aims to
use/become OpendDocument. I presume OpenDocument has ways of dealing
with this, but it is far beyond the things I currently care to
experiment with[1]. I am currently only concerned with a compositing
tree of layers (with compositing modes and filters, potentially the
definition of filters through a syntax similar to SVG-filters with
custom graph based pipelines.)
