sure

because of the colormangement and layers in krita we won't have a flake style 
canvas that is shown on screen

we would have to make a pseudo canvas that flake can draw to. Then we would 
have to take that and convert it into a krita paintdevice.

That paintdevice would then be painted onto the true (krita) canvas (which is 
where the rulers and grid will be)
