Pixelmator Photo on the iPad has an option to save edited photos back to the iCloud Photo Library, so that the original one is "modified". The unedited original will still be available, since you can use the revert function in the Photos.app. Adding this feature to Affinity Photo would help me reduce the amount of duplicates after editing photos and having the original one as well as the edited one side by side in my iCloud library.
