distort a pixel layer in Designer

[Artworkzzz]

Please allow pixel layer distorting in Designer.  I have heard that the objection to enabling this is the desire for things to be non destructive.

Such  a basic function should, I feel, be available directly in designer.  This obsession with 'non-destructive' is stopping all manner of great features and tools appearing. Moving backwards and forwards between apps is really clunky. 

When I used Adobe software and there was no going back on steps, I would simply duplicate a layer first, hide one of them, then try the transform or whatever.

Is there anything wrong with Layer → New Live Filter Layer → Perspective or Mesh Warp…?

Hi, my apologies.  I had searched for this feature and ended up on an affinity thread that did not know about this.  Thank you.
