How to transform a layer and a path both together?

[teapot]

Thanks Rich,

That's the first time I've seen a vector layer in action.

I'm wondering if it still allows transforming of both layer and path together in each of these three typical cases:

1. Select a path, fill a layer mask.

2. Make a path over say a photograph to use the path as a guide when drawing.

3. Select a path and fill a layer with a gradient.

Also if modifying the layer e.g.  by applying filters or tools e.g. paint tool maintains the connection between layer and path.

Can't say I'm looking forward to it.
