Cool! But does it still launch from the menu (when not called with a
filename as argument)?

With gimp-1.2.3-18mdk:

[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ gimp-remote -n
gimp-remote version 1.2.3
Tells a running Gimp to open a (local or remote) image file.

Usage: gimp-remote [options] [FILE|URI]...
Valid options are:
  -h --help       Output this help.
  -v --version    Output version info.
  -n --new        Start gimp if no active gimp window was found.

Example:  gimp-remote http://www.gimp.org/icons/frontpage-small.gif
     or:  gimp-remote localfile.png
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$

So, menu entry won't launch Gimp. On my machines, I edited
/usr/lib/menu/gimp to contain two entries ('The Gimp', and 'Open in
exising Gimp') to work around this problem.

The real problem is that the menu package doesn't know the difference
between launching for mime-type and lauching from menu?
