The bottom layer cannot be transparent, as far as I'm aware, so it does
not have an alpha channel associated with it.
I posted this to the c.g.a.gimp group initially but was told that this
might be a better place for it. I wanted to discuss it before submitting
it as a feature requeset to bugzilla. That way other users of the GIMP
can bring their ideas to it (like, whether or not they like it!) and I
