Crop Tool has no option to snap to an edge of a layer

It's just for snapping to canvas edges, not an edge of a layer

In GIMP, we can use Layer > Crop to Content to crop based on a layer boundary, but there is no option to snap the cropping to an edge of a layer.
Please check the screenshot below and see the layer with a red rectangle in it:
Layer Example
How to snap the cropping to the bottom edge of the layer, since there is no Snap to Layer option?
We can do this easily in Photoshop:
Snap to Layer Feature in Photoshop
What kind of came to mind was:
1- Create guides delimiting the layer.
2- Use the Crop Tool with the option 'Snap to Guides' enabled.
Thanks, but I can't find New Guides from Active Layer. Do you use a plug-in or script to use that option?
