--- Comment #5 from Dmitry Kazakov <dimul...@gmail.com> --- I just checked how PS works: 1) If there is a group layer with children, then Ctrl+E shortcut is automatically **renamed** into "Merge group" and the action doesn't merge down, but merges the group 2) If there is a layer with masks, then Ctrl+E doesn't bake it, but works as usual, merges the layer down. So I feel that Ctrl+E with should still flatten, but groups only. But for other types of layers, Ctrl+E should work as usual. And flatten would convert the layers into usual paint layers if applicable. What do you think about such idea?
