Wait, please. I actually was working on this but it isn't finished yet.
I won't remove any blending mode entry from the list but instead make 
the blending mode categories expandable and collapsible (That actually 
works right now... maybe nobody noticed :D). Than I want to add another 
category on top of the list called "favorites" or something and a button 
next to each blending mode to add it to the favorite section. Then you 
can collapse all other sections and have only the "favorites" section open.

I really would like to not remove any mode out of the list. It would 
make the whole process of experimenting with the modes more complicated 
because the user would need to add every mode he wants to use manually. 
And since I think that the majority of the users wont know what each 
mode is doing, they need to experiment with them.

The collapse state of the sections needs of course to be saved that 
after a restart not every section is open again.
Please be a bit patient... everything will come to an happy end :D
