How does one go about requesting this as a feature enhancement?

To include this in Gimp would vastly improve usability in this regard, as well as making logical (and practical) sense.

Except that the opacity slider makes it tougher to see the preview as the opacity is made less.

But that's besides the point.

1. If I've set the opacity of the layer, then the opacity of that layer should remain as is when I scale / rotate. 2. When I scale / rotate, the layer's position in the stack should remain in its place, rather than suddenly appear at the top of every layer when being rotated / scaled.

Surely, this is a reasonable request?

The more I work in Gimp, the more I realise that this is something that needs to be looked at by the developers, as it is not very intuitive.

Again, I've found how the focus of the image being rotated / scaled interferes with the rest of the working area. For example, if I set a particular layer's opacity to 20% and the layer is at the bottom of all other layers, why, then, does the opacity become 100% and the layer suddenly appear on top of all other layers?

This makes it very difficult to work efficiently.

Is there a way to fix this / work around it?

The Scale and Rotate tools have an opacity slider for the preview...
