This is a feature request submission of what this krita-artist thread is talking about:
https://krita-artists.org/t/2d-camera-movement/89628

The usage of transform masks is a horrible substitute for an animation camera because it chews up resources extremely quickly. While very simple camera movements can be done, once you start getting complex, you're lucky if the program doesn't crash at all while it's constantly recalculating everything.

So I propose as outlined in the thread, to either overhaul transform masks and/or replace them with a dedicated camera. One additional suggestion is that when you zoom in, it only takes into account what is being zoomed in rather than the entire layer.
