GIMP - Copy the layer mask to another layer

Did you ever need to copy a layer mask from one layer to another? In Photoshop this is a very easy process, which involves only the mouse and the Ctrl key, but in GIMP things aren't that straightforward (but not much complicated either).

GIMP - Using an image/layer as a layer mask

This started to become annoying. Although GIMP has some very nice features and can be considered a real candidate to Photoshop, some of them can be quite hard and counter-intuitive to use. One of them would be the ability to paste a layer inside a layer mask - or in other words use another layer as a layer mask.
