Hi all, it is really amazing to see progress for local corrections in darktable!! Although I'm not an active developer, I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion regarding the organisation of the regions.

If I understood this correctly, these regions actually exist independently from the iops. So why shouldn't they be managed independently from the iops, e.g. in a menu on the left panel (as it was intended the first masks branch I think)? Then an iop would be "simply" assigned to one (or more?) regions. A further step might be to manage regions in groups. Then it may be possible to compose multiple regions in a group, by making some regions additive and other subtractive. Simple Use-case: draw a big additive circle and place a subtractive smaller circle region inside. The result would be a ring-shaped region. So in the case of grouped regions, an iop instance would be assigned to one or more groups. I'm not sure if I explained this idea comprehensible. And it is actually not my own idea, since it is inspired by the bibble raw tool. So for those of you who know the bibble raw tool (or nowadays called AfterShot pro), it might sound familiar :) > At this stade, I'm manly interested in comment from the devs on the > implementation. So I hope you don't mind receiving such comments from a non-dev :-) Maybe you like the idea. Thanks for all your great work!!
