Has any progress been made on getting Enblend to work with the
multi-plane TIFF output of nona?  Did the patch for this submitted by
Edouard Gomez get integrated into the main source.  Do the alpha editing
tricks for getting Enblend to ignore certain areas of images work with
the multi-plane TIFF (I suppose Gimp2 still can't write them?).  

Thanks,
