As a user following the development of GIMP, I think it would be far more interesting if the blending modes and operations work correctly and consistently with the new core. I'm aware that keeping legacy compatibility is high in the priorities list, but maybe that can be added later. From what you say, it looks like "proper" has to wait. It seems more reasonable if it is the other way around. At the moment some legacy compatibility seems to be getting in the middle every time you want to try the new capabilities of the program. Clipping and some blending modes is one of those things, and some confusing bits about editing in linear and gamma precisions too.
