. do we save the selection of the current layer (like copy/paste does). or do we save the selection on the complete image. and if so, what about layers - do we save only the complete rendered image, or do we save the layers individually when saving to a format that supports layers. I found that if I copied and pasted multiple objects from Inkscape into the same layer in Krita 4, I was still unable to edit them individually as.

When I have multiple layers in Krita, how can I export each layer as an individual image?

There is no direct export option, however when saving in the .tif format, you can easily convert to separate .png files using Imagemagick's
convert
.If you save the following image:
in the .tif format without flattening:
and then convert to single images using:
you will then have the separate images:
Hopefully, installing Imagemagick won't be a challenge or two.
There also seems to be a script to convert from .ora, however saving as .org is very slow and a quick test of the script created results of much smaller resolution.

I know I am a bit late, but Krita 4.1.0 (released this june) does have such option.
Go to 'Tools'->'Scripts'->'Export layers'. There you can choose the folder and what to do with visible/invisible layers. The output image names are the layer names.

Another option is to save a file in psd format and then use other editors (gimp, etc.).

Use File > Export >Spriter SCML - this command export all layers as files and all groups as folders
