| adding color after using threshold |

Hello, my name's Ben, and GIMP has been essential for more than a decade... I've recently installed version 3.2.4, and it seems as though a change has been made to my favorite tool: threshold.
In the past, color could be easily added to a thresholded layer by simply selecting a color for a bucket, brush, or pencil, then using said tool on the thresholded layer. But now, a layer that has been thresholded remains permanently black & white, i.e., having first used the threshold function to make a layer black & white, the selected color of a bucket, brush, or pencil will only result in the addition of either black or white on the thresholded layer.
I've been able to work around the problem by copying a colored layer, thresholding the copy, then merging the newly thresholded layer down to the (colored) original. But the fix is clunky.
What I'd like to know is whether there's a way to set the threshold function to "one time" or "just this once" so that color can be added to a thresholded layer simply by selecting then using a new tool?

| Wacom tablet with GIMP 3.2.4 |

I'm doing a lot of old B/W photo restoring and some colouring. Using GIMP 3.2.4. To make selections in an image I use a mouse, but I'm finding I'm just not dextrous enough to draw intricate outlines/selections in photos with fine detail, like trees and leaves etc..
So I thought about a Wacom pen tablet, and they're going cheap near me. But I need to know if that tablet is good for that kind of work. Will I get good control and be able to track the pen around every nook and cranny to make a selection?
I'm not concerned about a lot of other functions, as long as it's useful for that fine detail.
Anybody have any advice or comments? Thanks.
