Gimp Layer Preview Size Fit Layers

I guess the real question is: why do you need to maintain layers that are bigger than the canvas ?

Maybe I should clarify...

Suppose my canvas size is something like 1000px by 9000px, and I have over 100 layers, all around 20px by 20px. In my Layers window, all of the layer previews would show a scaled-down view of the entire canvas, with a single pixel somewhere on it that represents the actual layer, which is downright useless for identifying layers at a glance. 

What I would like to see is layer previews that show the "zoomed in" preview of the actual tiny little layer, defined by the layer boundary size, and NOT the "zoomed out" view of the entire canvas, defined by the canvas size.


Am I making any sense at all?  Blush
