* Perhaps change the strategy to use gimp-image-duplicate to simplify the process. The drawback is that only visible layers get merged down, so either the user should ensure that all layers are visible, or the program should do that.

No changes with respect to the [[GIMP Layers to SL Animated Texture|stable version]] yet.
* To alleviate that last issue, it would be wise to clip each layer to the rectangle it's assumed to be on, if it's bigger. Using the relative position of each layer in the original image would be wise too.
