Could you build this?
No Building a full-fledged image editor supporting layers, masks, and proprietary PSD parsing in Rust is an immense software engineering endeavor requiring deep computer graphics and binary file format expertise.
What it would actually take: The core requires a high-performance 2D raster graphics engine written in Rust using WGPU or Skia, managing a custom scene graph, non-destructive layer composition, blend modes, and mask clipping pipelines. It also requires a custom parser for Adobe's complex, proprietary PSD specification and multithreaded image processing kernels.
