Here is a result List of the "Animated Filtercall" Tests
  I tested more than 100 PDB-Procedures and the GAP's _iter_ALT Procedures
  on a 3-Layer Testimage with Menu:
   
  <Image>/Filters/Animation/Filter All Layers   using "Apply Varying" Button

---------------------------------------------------
Testresults (used in Makefile 1.1)
--------------------------------------------------
14.03.1999

   Test with PDB-Procedures (Plugins) that came with
   gimp release 1.1.3
   and all the generated (or manually changed) _iter_ALT Procedures

State:
+ ... Passed simple "Aplly Varying" Test OK
- ... Failed Test
. ... not tested

 REM ... Removed the generated _iter_ALT Procedure
           Plugin did not work with last value interface
           but it would make sense if Interface would be OK.
 Del ... Deleted the generated _iter_ALT Procedure
           It does not make sense to call the Plugin
           with varying Values

   * ... Iter_ALT modified by Hand

plug_in_map_object Testreport:
   
   - The MapObject has an implicite feature:
     If the handled layer has NO ALPHA Channel (as backgrounds often do)
     and the "Transparent background" is ON
     it forces the creation of a new image.
     (regardless if the "Create new image" option is on or not)

     It took me hours to find out about that feature
     that looks more like a bug to me.
     I would prefere to add the alpha channel in such a case.
     
     If you want to do animated calls to MapObject ("Apply Varying" Button)
     please make sure that the background layer has an Alphachannel
     (Open Layers & Channels dialog, and "Add Apha Channel"
      to the bg layer)

  - If you call MapObject a 2nd time in the same gimp session
    gimp will crash if one of the drawables (that were used
    in the 1.st call) has become invalid.
    
    The BUG is in the GIMP-core Procedure(s)
       gimp_layer_get_image_id
       gimp_drawable_image_id
       
    (in older GIMP releases these Procedures did return -1
     on invalid Ids, in Gimp 1.1.3 it comes to a crash
     I hope that this Bug will be fixed in gimp 1.2)
