Dummy Layer with particular dynamic

Sorry but i don't understand if this possible new feature (adjustment layer) is interesting or not? I would try to do an implementation, but if is useless or not interesting i will do other. What do you think?

Hello, i think that would be very useful a dummy layer that can contains a particular effect/operation like curves in order to change parameters in future without any problems and eventually using a particular mask for handle particular zone where i don't want this.
In this case is possible to activate or deactivate effects and change that parameters dynamically without any duplicate image layers with static effects. The problem may be in a user-defined plugins but for standard operation like levels or curves there isn't or i'm missing somethings? If i write an effect plugin would be perfect to associate that with this kind of dummy layer in order to change parameters/enable/disable/masking/unmasking that whenever i want. Sorry for my english :),i'm not a mother language...

Well, adjustment layers is what GIMP developers seem to refer to as "layer abuse" :)

There are different ways to implement non-destructive editing. Would you be interested to find out more?

I would be very interested in a non-destructive way of applying a curve to an image. A method that would allow later modification of the curve without having to rebuild everything that had been worked on since. Is there a proposed mechanism to support this?
