When using the Image Calculator via the GUI on virtual stacks, we get a warning that the stack must be converted to a real stack first.

That makes sense, but can this restriction be lifted when the "create new window" choice is activated?

If the destination stack is a new stack, then it should not matter if one or both of the source stacks are virtual.

In a macro, this is already allowed, the command

imageCalculator("difference create stack", "virtual stack 1", "virtual stack 2");

works as expected.
