Yes, that is what gimp and photoshop show too. And with boudewijn we concluded 
that it is what makes most sense. If we want to show a preview of the applied 
result, we could show it in the tooltip.

Isn't the original of a mask null ? Because my first attempt was to use 
"original()" (actually moving the thumbnail code from KisLayer to 
KisBaseNode), since I expected the data of the mask to be in "original()", but 
I got a null "original()" for the transparency mask.
