Hey everyone :)
Just wanted to say, that I would really love to see Python support and ideally PySide as well. Every professional design application I can think of supports Python (except crappy Adobe software...)
Pipeline integration is extremely cumbersome in Adobe software because the scripting capabilities are so bad. Together with a Linux port there would be good chances that affinity photo would be considered by VFX studios around the world :) Affinity Photo already has better EXR support than Photoshop, together with Linux, Python and a good adjustment layer like nukes grade node, Affinity Photo would have another real advantage over Photoshop in regards to VFX needs.
